I think you're in the ballpark based on what I'm seeing online. Assuming it is authentic 500 euros seems to be a reasonable expectation maybe a little more. Might go higher if authenticated, graded and then sold at auction.

The first 500 & 1000 Hryven, 2024, PMG graded notes have just hit. Pick # 140 was assigned to the 1000 Hryven note and Pick # 139 to the 500 Hryven note, I've updated the images in the original post to reflect the newly assigned Pick #'s. Since the last new Pick # assigned prior to these two note was #134 it seems that either they want to number the six denominations sequentially or they just wanted to have a gap in case of future changes or discoveries. Assuming that they are going to assign Pick #'s sequentially from lowest to highest denomination it means that, if true, we (I) can speculate what the other Pick #'s will be. Here you go, my guess is 20 Hryven P# 135, 50 Hryven P# 136, 100 Hryven P# 137, 200 Hryven P# 138. We should find out quickly since the 50 Hryven notes were put into circulation shortly after the 1000 & 500 notes.

Another for the sig set.

Found it! I forgot it was so thin, it was sandwiched in between some of my other books and I didn't see it until now when I was rearranging my library. Anyway, this is the only catalog that I know of that is specific to these tickets, but there could be others, it's titled "1893 - COLUMBIAN EXPOSITION, ADMISSION AND CONCESSION TICKETS" by James P. Doolin, ca. 1981. Below is an image of the cover. It does have catalog numbers in it for over 150 tickets.

Welcome to the forum. Greysheet is generally a good reference for U.S. note pricing, I would definitely use that over the Whitman Guidebook as Greysheet is updated regularly while the Guidebook is only updated once a year at best. Your best bet to determine pricing is to do some legwork on your own and look at auction sites like Heritage Auctions, Stack's Bowers, Great Collections, etc. and check out their auction archives for recently sold examples that are an exact match to your notes. The value of specimens vs actual notes depends, in some series actual notes will be worth more while with others the specimens bring in higher prices. Generally specimens bring higher prices but this is something that you could research while checking auction prices and verify. The PMG website is not as developed as NGC, it will not have all of the features of the NGC webpages.

I would search online to see if there is a local coin shop near you, just be aware that if you sell to a shop or dealer they are not going to pay full retail as that is what they would try to sell it for. They need to make some money on the transaction and would probably only pay up to 80% of retail. Another option would be to go to a local coin show and try to sell the notes there, in that case, especially if a larger regional show, you'll be able to talk with many dealers and collectors and shop your notes around. You can also try posting the notes for sale in the buy, sell, trade sections of some of the popular banknote forums like here at PMG, also PCGS, and PaperMoneyForum would be good places as well as some FaceBook groups. More than likely, too many in the same auction would likely suppress the prices realized. It's better to sell multiples of the same note separately over time to ensure top dollar. Thanks.

14145050 Welcome to the forum. The serial number in the title is not a fancy number, not a radar, not a repeater, and the note is not worth having graded because of this number.

What is the Fr # for these? Ebay is probably your best bet or a private sale to a dealer or collector. An auction house like Heritage, Stack's Bowers, or Great Collections would be good if you sold them one at a time over the course of a few years.

This is an interesting one. It started out as a Bank of Washtenaw (Ann Arbor) $2 but was altered to a State Bank of Vermont (Montpelier) $2 note by counterfeiters. I'm having trouble identifying the stamp, not seeing anything online and I'm not quite sure what the last two letters are. NH maybe? Back rotated 180deg so that notation is upright.

PMG's P.O. box is 4755, zip code is 34230. Sounds like maybe whomever delivered the package made a mistake or the label was wrong? Regardless I'd check with the delivery service to see if this information is accurate, doubtful PMG can do anything if the package was delivered to the wrong address. The 34243 zip code is still Sarasota so probably a good chance that it'll get fixed on its own. I just sent in a submission a few weeks ago, it only took PMG one or two days to check it in.

Try posting this in the ASK PMG section of the forum. You can also email them at service@pmgnotes.com I'm pretty sure they will but I would double check with PMG. I wouldn't mind seeing the bond if you could post a pic of it that would be great, if not no worries.

Try posting this in the Ask PMG section of the forum, doubtful that this will be seen or get a response here.
