Condition:
For international buyers, please note that the new US postal rates for overseas shipping are very high and we are unable to change them. Additional charges will be incurred depending on the value of the item. Please check the cost of shipping before bidding. I would grade this banknote as a good fine or much better with all the details being still well preserved. The note has several vertical folds and horizontal folds as well as general light wrinkling. The note lost its stiffness and is fairly soiled with some staining. It has no tears or splits and is intact with undamaged corners but they have distinct rounding. The edges show roughness and have tiny nicks especially where the folds end. The note is no longer vivid in its coloring and shows some fading. The note has no pinholes, no tears, no graffiti, and no splits. Still a nice note to add to your collection. Please see the scan for additional condition information.
