I see that the seller has removed Charltons definition of what a rotator note really is, but still advertises it as a rotator.  Boy that sure fooled me ;D

This is obviously a new type of Rotator, i.e. a "PMG Rotator" (not a Charlton Rotator), and who are we to question the final judgment of what many people regard to be the most "respected" third-party paper money grading company in the entire world? LOL!!

Hey Ottawa, dat sounds like a perfect description for it.

Hey Brent.   It was all Friedsquids fault.  He accidently ate cuttlefish instead of squid.  He was hallucinating :o

PMG and the other American TPG companies should stick with what they know best, i.e., US currency, and they should not interfere with the Canadian and World markets by imposing laxer US grading standards on non-US notes. Canadian and International grading standards have traditionally been much tighter than the prevailing US standards. The paper fabric of post-1860 US notes is much different from that employed on Canadian and World notes and this fact may explain, at least in part, why PMG tends to overgrade Canadian and World notes by at least half a grade.

Here's another one using ones on Ebay; item 220208321588 ASF 1011101. A very nice literal Binary radar.

I have not browsed in many US banknote sites, so could we assume that the inclusion of the One is within the American definition of a Rotator and not the Charlton. If so, do American collectors have a explicit definition of Rotator in their own community? That can explain part of the confusion.

Dei Gratia

This is not a rotator note but it is also not a Beattie/ Coyne  replacement note either.

 PMG really has no clue. Ebay item number 120232216183.

Now this is even funnier. I asked the seller of this note about the discrepancy and this was his answer

This is the question asked about this note and there answer.

Q:     Do you realize that your PMG holder does not coincide with the actually note in the holder. The first thing is that the serial numbers do not match and secondly neither to the signatures. Do you have an explanation please THX
 
A:     Our explanation.... it's a RARE PMG Error!


 So I'm guessing that they are saying it is worth more because of this RARE packaging error? 

 I see that there was a response while I was typing but I'm not wasting my typing effort.

On the contrary, PMG has demonstrated many errors in the past. It's their properly graded notes that are becoming rarer.  ;)
