Notes are more easily damaged by handling. There are other factors that I have not quantified like the number of coin collectors vs note collectors, the amount of NCLT coins and mint sets graded vs presentation notes, total number of each and the percent that graded 70, etc. but my gut feeling is that notes graded 70 far less than coins. In the end I feel it comes down to that notes are more fragile.

To me it depends on if you can recoup the grading fees and be money ahead when it comes time to sell, I don't use an arbitrary minimum dollar amount as a determining factor. Of course some people just want to have a note graded so it can be added to a registry set, regardless. The grading fee alone for this note would be $37, add shipping there and back, handling fee, insurance, etc., and your looking at a sizable sum. Tough to recoup that money on a note like this.

They source it. There is probably only a hand-full of African nations that print their own currency

70's are fairly rare when it comes to notes, much tougher for a note to graded 70 than a coin imo, and the prices for 70's are usually outrageous. I like to try and pick up notes graded 68 and stay away from 69 & 70 as the price is not worth it. Here is my only 70 graded note, a test note from 2008.

I believe he pawned it or sold it to a coin shop. I thought he said in another post that whomever he sold the note to was going to get it graded but I don't think the results were ever posted.

I don't think they really stood for anything, just a change in the ink used. You can probably date the notes by the seal color. Awesome not GF. You picked out some notes with really good eye appeal.

Condition is king, they are not worth getting graded. Birthday notes are a niche collecting area, they bring very little premium if any in my experience. The serial number 06241965 is probably the best one since there are people still living that were born on that date, unless the other dates coincide with other famous births or events in history.

Yes, uncirculated bills sell for around $300, circulated bills I would estimate sell for about half depending on condition. The OP says the note is circulated but theirs is an actual fancy number so it wouldn't surprise me if it got close to three hundo.

Yep, like the old pumps with the number wheels that would not line up.

When a digit is not in line with the rest, either higher or lower, it is referred to as a "Gas Pump" note or by the technical term Stuck Digit which refers the digits on the numbering wheel. Most Gas Pump notes have no or very little value above face unless part of the next digit was printed on the note, part of the digit is missing, or there is a partial of the two digits. It's not unusual for mismatched serial numbers to be gas pumps/stuck digits.

Mismatched Serial Number or Stuck Digit. Nice find.

I'd put a FMV of between $150 and $200 on it. PMG decides what to put on the label, it would say BINARY or BINARY SERIAL NUMBER somewhere on the label, usually they put it on the front if there is room. You can pay extra for PMG to put a pedigree on the label like Jogarced Collection, or something like that, but that's about it.

It's a little confusing but I believe PMG's definition of a Super Radar is a radar serial number with matching block letters, not that four or six of the middle digits are the same. In this sense PMG does recognize "True" radars as they are the same as super in their book. That's how I interpret it at any rate, might be worth asking PMG for clarification. Nice radar-repeater.

None of the numbers have any added value and I personally wouldn't pay a premium for any of them but if I was going to pick one I'd go with the 30008000 note the others are all the same to me.

Pretty rare if authentic. I'm having trouble matching up the President's sig, the cashier is Ernst H. Meyer. There are only two different sigs pair with Meyer's, Nieman which this is not, and A. R. Dolph, the sig on your doesn't appear to be either. Doesn't mean it's not real, just that it's not matching up with known records from what I can tell. If authentic it could go for a big number.

Nice one GF. Small size NBN's in circulated condition can be had for decent prices, I've been exploring them a little bit, might be a good area of the marked to dabble in undisturbed for not a lot of $'s. When I say circulated I'm talking in the 30-40 range with Quality paper, a 58 like that would bring a good price. Someone may want to try and crack it out if it looked good in hand.

I would say that a circulated $100 fancy fancy serial number is not worth the cost of having graded. You'd probably break even or maybe come out a little ahead as far as recouping the grading fees but would make less money overall as you'd probably have a bigger margin selling it raw. One more thing to consider, a circulated $100 bill is a lot of money to be sitting on just because it has a fancy serial number, most fancy $100 bills sell for less of a premium when compared to lower denomination fancies because of the FV. Not saying you couldn't find that one person to pay up for it but you may have to sit on it for a long time, and you may not ever find that person.

Doesn't really add any value, especially if they are not in pristine condition. Definitely not worth having graded.

I think most or all went to auction and ended up in private hands, could be wrong on that but these do pop up from time to time. I think there was a "Binion Hoard" of silver dollars as well that was auctioned off.

Just saw that SB is selling one of the Binion notes. https://auctions.stacksbowers.com/lots/view/3-18ITWW/fr-2231-b-1934-light-green-seal-10-000-federal-reserve-note-new-york-pcgs-banknote-choice-uncirculated-64
