  1. I can understand to an extent why this is not one of ABNC's finest. However, I really like the blue ink on the reverse, it seems to bring a subtle toning down of the whole note. I still like ABNC's work, and this note does show it off.

    Hey, I had a chance to take a look at your signature set and I would be interested in your czechoslovakia 1000 korun. What would be the best way to talk and work out a deal?

    I must apologize to you first, I'm very sorry it took me this long to get back to you. I guess the best way to talk and work out a deal would be either a PM here or via our private emails. My email is bamyank@iowatelecom.net. Let me know how you want to proceed. Thank you. Again I'm sorry it took so long. Brian

  3. Thank you both. I figured once I got looking at them they would be in General WC and I have the Specialized with me. But it's nice to learn, so I guess that's a plus for me. Oh, by the way VE, I'll probably have the Czech note photos in my Specimen signature set tonight if you would like to take a look at it.

    Again, thanks both of you for the help and comments. An extra note for your viewing pleasure.

  4. To Fenntucky and ColonialCoinsUK, thanks to both of you for the comments. I really understand what you mean Colonial , I'm thinking that I'll be having more Signature sets rather than normal registry sets. For example the ABNC set has over 120 notes, there is no way I feel I'll complete it, for lack of cash and lack of  years to do it. I'm not getting any younger.

    I'm going to give adding scans again today Fenntucky, so wish me luck.

  5. Again, thanks for the kind words. I do try to pick the best notes I can that I can afford. Right now I really have to sell most of my non Mexican notes.That's my big problem, my eyes are bigger than my wallet. I may try do mexico, then all the way down thru South America. I may wind up doing a custom set of ABN notes as I have noticed some of the sets are HUGE, maybe 50 or 60 notes. But I'll keep plugging away as it's sure nice to be back.

  6. Mike, are you referring to the note I posted?? If you are, thank you very much for the kind words. I believe that note to be one of the notes that would be graded the lowest, as it is off center top to bottom and having been a pressman for 20 years, off centering bugs me. Also if you are, I may post some more to get some of your thoughts on grading. Since it's been a while since I've graded any, was curious if PMG's standards have changed. I have a fondness for ABNC's notes so may post a few more of those.Mexico60hR.thumb.jpg.294f7704792263ab42f60ac565fd95b0.jpgMexico60gF.thumb.jpg.635b7a737ec177abe2a3f31d82492f70.jpg
