The value of a number grade
« on: May 14, 2008, 12:53:23 am »
 I was shocked to see this regular old $2 note from 1986 sell for $43.00 because of the number on the holder.

 It was ebay item # 220230287412

 Here is a scan

I think I'm going to start up a grading company and use a 75 point scale. That way, I can grade lots of stuff in the 65-70 range, and even some stuff in the low 70s. I'll make millions! ;D

I am so glad that I read that eBay listing.  I had no idea that Canadian paper money is increasingly becoming more scarce.  Silly me, I've been spending it nearly every day.   ::)

Are you suggesting the PMG 65 $ 5.00 Devil Face Brent has up for sale on ebay will be re-graded to BM 75?
