  1. That is a small run but I was easily able to find notes from that run in similar condition, in the price range mentioned. Condition is big factor. No, not even close. Well within BEP tolerance. Depending on the type of note, number, condition, etc., it's possible for a two digit serial number note to hit 1k but the note in the OP isn't one of those notes. I'd still estimate $50-$100, possibly a little more, but who knows what could happen at auction.
  2. Welcome to the forum, It's a 100 Lire banknote issued by the Allied Forces during the invasion of Italy, the note was printed by the U.S. Bureau of Engraving and Printing. They are not particularly valuable, looks like they are selling for a few dollars each in that condition on ebay.
  3. Neat find. It's in circulated condition and if I go online I can find series 2013, L block, star notes fairly easily and in the similar condition people are asking around $5. The serial number does add some value to the note on top of that, it's not a true binary note which would have a serial number consisting of only 0's and 1's but is binary in the sense that it has only two types of numerals in the serial number, the real value is that the serial number is pretty low and 66 seams to be a more popular number. Hard to say what it might go for in an auction, maybe between $50 - $100. Put it in an auction on ebay and start the bidding at 1¢, see where it ends. It's not a gas pump, not close really. For a "gas pump" note to have any value there needs to be more of a difference in the digits, typically collectors want to see part of the digit missing before they'll pay a premium.
  4. Those notes are pretty roached, not much value there above face.
  5. Don't know much about this bill but the last two that sold at auction on ebay went for under $80 each, this note is in much better condition than those so I'd estimate the value at around $150. The 4 over the 2 and being printed on the back of another note or used sheet is normal.
  6. Notes that were not issued (not signed, dated or missing the serial number) are called remainders. Because they were not issued they are found in generally better condition than issued notes but are typically less desirable, valuable, because they are missing the sigs, date, etc.. I'd have to research the others but I see Bank of Washtenaw notes a lot and I'd value a $1 remainder in that condition at around $20-$40, the $3 would go a little higher probably $40-$60. Long story short, there is nothing unusual about these missing the sigs and they are not worth the cost of grading.
  7. Welcome to the forum. Recommendations as to what? In general silver certificates such as the ones you posted have little value over face unless they are in pristine condition, there are a few exceptions but it doesn't look like any of the notes posted are unique in any way although the center $1 looks pretty nice. There is a $10 mule, if you can post the back of the note I can take a look. You might be able to get $2 each for the ones, a little more for notes in similar condition to the center note, and $20-$40 for the ten.

    A hoard note?

    Interesting, the partial text on the righthand side of the face is similar to some of the bonds where tickets have been cut from the main body. Was this part of a larger bond and/or were there tickets attached to it at one point? Did the note receive the EPQ designation? A beauty of a note as well!
  9. Finally arrived, a 1920, 1000 Karbovantsiv note with AB prefix and connected stars watermark. This was a tough one to track down. I now have 12 of the 14 known varieties of this note, plus a few unknown, leaving only the AA & АБ prefix notes with connected stars watermark left for me to try and acquire. These will be tough as I have never seen examples of these notes.
  10. Your best best would be to research the notes yourself first, pick out the one's you think will have some value and then bring them to a local coin shop or dealer for appraisal. Based on the images you've posted it appears that most, if not all, of the notes in the collection have been pulled from circulation and condition is huge factor when determining value for notes. Also, all of the notes posted appear to be readily available on the open market and because of condition and availability these notes have little to no value above face.
  11. This is pretty good site to find sigs, in general with a little internet searching, especially if you have the date the note was printed, you should be able to figure them out. http://www.banknote.ws/COLLECTION/countries/ASI/IND/IND.htm
  12. Looks good to me, I think it's authentic. Ink's on the heavy side but seems legit, PMG isn't going to dock it for that, the stains, poor centering, etc., yes. The seal missing doesn't worry me as there seem to be several examples with the seal missing, some in PMG holders. It's possible the seal faded, was not applied, or applied poorly. Nice note.
  13. This is my second example of this piece, it's in slightly better condition than my other note. The face is generally well centered and cut very close to the cut markings, which you can see particularly well in the upper right corner. The printing on the back is slightly misaligned to the face and as a result a portion of the note above this one in the sheet is visible.
  14. On October 24th the NBU released into circulation 20 Hryven notes dated 2023 with the signature of the current NBU Chairman, Andrii Pyshnyi. The new notes are the third date and signature variety in the current series and will undoubtedly be assigned Pick # A126c. The current 20 Hryven design has also been used on two separate occasions for commemorative issues, once in 2016 and again in 2021, the 2016 notes having different security features but the same artistic design as the others. According to a recent study, 20 Hryven notes of the current design account for 6.3% of all notes currently in circulation in Ukraine, that's 169,200,000 notes worth approximately ₴3,384,000,000 Hryvnia or $93,935,000.88 USD. With the release of the new 20 Hryven notes the only other denominations not bearing the current Chairman's signature are the 50 & 200, and I expect those to be printed very soon.
  15. Thanks for the pics. The condition of the note is abysmal and the misalignment is not significant enough to be worth a premium, as a general rule if you can't see a portion of the next note it's not significant enough. It's a spender in my book but if you want to hang on to it cool.
  16. Welcome to the forum. Can you post a picture of the note.
