Lance A D Posted April 29 Report Share Posted April 29 I was going through my junk pile and I came across a bunch of radar and repeater $1 FRNs from the last 25 years or so (all crisp uncirculated, maybe 63-65s). I’m curious as to what these things are going for today. What does a typical radar go for? What does a typical super radar go for? What does a typical 4-digit [ABCD ABCD] repeater go for? Appreciate your input. GoldFinger1969 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fenntucky Mike Posted April 29 Report Share Posted April 29 Check sold listings on ebay, Heritage Auctions and Stack's Bowers archives, etc., to determine FMV. GoldFinger1969 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Appreciate your input. I'm gonna say $25-$60, depending on the condition and unqiueness of the numbers. You see them auctioned EVERY WEEK ove at HA. Usually 1-2 dozen.

Lance A D Posted May 13 Author Report Share Posted May 13 Following the instructions given me here, I spent a day and a half, more-or-less, not full time, searching completed sales on eBay over the last month or so. Some of the prices are insane. Ignoring these out-flyers I found the following unscientific, best-guess, average but seemingly realistic prices for raw, uncirculated notes: Radar notes - $30.+. Super Radar notes - not enough data. Four-digit Repeater notes - $25. Binomial (2-digit) notes - $12. Binary (0 & 1s) notes - $35+. Binary Fancy notes (Radars & Repeaters) - $100++. Fancy serial number (ending 5 of a kind, 10K, etc.) notes - $10. Unusual, attractive (book ends, 1K, etc.) notes - $7. If anybody out there has any thoughts or observations or experiences or data related to this topic, I would greatly appreciate hearing of it.

Radars, repeaters, and binary are the most common fancy numbers and typically sell for a small premium above face ($1-$2) for circulated notes, depending on the numbers involved and the combinations. For uncirculated notes the prices paid are probably closer to what you posted. Edited May 13 by Fenntucky Mike GoldFinger1969 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I usually try and buy high-quality since the costs are pretty low whether I pay $25 a bill or $45 a bill. If you buy PMG-65 or higher bills, you have to pay up. Depends on where the inflection point is where the price rises exponentially. Sometimes, it's at the 68-grade level for recent bills. These bills must go straight from the BEP to collectors/TPGs because they are pristine (often uncut). Edited June 5 by GoldFinger1969 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
