What did you get for yours?

Hi 2inV, would you have graded it that high yourself?

Hi Starman,

Great question.I sold this note in an email sent ot all my previous buyers at the same time.I solicited the highest bid,which came at $13,500.
At the time PMG was not as widely marketed or accepted,at least here in Canada.That is my perception anyways.
What is interesting,I did describe the note as perhaps,if graded,would return one of the highest known *VV's to date.
In direct answer to your question,I had shown that note to many a dealer and collector.All thought it an amazing note.I'd have graded it as such,had that been the norm for terms at the time.
Second thought I'd have probably said...PMG 65 no doubt,with a very likely PMG66 but no guarantees

I was watching this note also, but I think you are mistaken... in the book an unc is $110, gem unc $120.

That was a very nice note!
 

Heh.. that is too funny.  I remeber seeing that 1975 $50 for sale.

I thought to myself while I was in the Currency Museum last week and saw they had the 1975 $50 HA000037 (I think) in the display..

HEY! The HA0000001 is on E-Bay.. Lol..

You should have donated it to the Musem.    (Joke)

Thanks for that info.Although I lived in the city in the early 90's was not in to the hobby at that time,never even knew a currency museum could be part of our 'landscape'.

Correction,was on ebay.She could have donated it,but with the printing presses on auto pilot we all deserve our share!

It's ok.. they have enough notes in their HORDE.

The value of the notes in the collectors area has to well over several millions...

Too bad though.  If you did "get them" you couldn't sell them if you wanted to.  Unless you know people on the black market or something??

Dang serial numbers.

The *VV that I previously owned 5503999,now graded PMG66 sold for $14,500 plus 20% fee equaling $17,400.This figure does not include taxes,which,depending where the purchaser resides could be close to $20,000 or better paid for this note.
PMG 65 and 66 notes sold strong.

Wow,

How will that effect the Charlton Cat?

Just bought a 1954 $10 Devils Head Changeover Note (Co-To E/D) in EF/AU condition, for $60 (Canadian)
Book Value is around $125 for an EF/AU note.
