hmm thanks for the lesson, i wonder how many notes ive past up cause i thought they were stained. Setting the foxxing aside, i would say AU grade. a nice addition in deed

kool i found it nice :) say i have a very crisp no crease note. it has browning on it "foxing". but it is awsome other than that. what would the grade drop due to just browning?

that was a cam pic. i have now hooked scanner back up and will add scans of note. i also need to know am i wrong about this foxxing thing. is foxxing just a natural stain?

Perhaps they grade notes differently in the States. In Canada, to have an EF note, the allowed flaws could be a centerfold, or two or three very light creases, but no combination of the two. This note has "staining, folded corners, a missing corner, and what looks like multiple light creases. Even if the note is crisp, this isn't an EF note. Even if there were no "stains", this still isn't an EF note. (IMHO :shy: ) To me, those "stains" look like the transfer that many notes get from being in a leather wallet. The wallet may have gotten damp somewhere along the line, and therefore you'll see this sort of result. With that little corner missing, I'd have to bring your grade down to VF-, as previously suggested, but it's still an "eBay UNC". lol:jokealert:

 

BTW, I'm not trying to put your note down, I'm just trying to be honest with you. :foryou:
