Scott B Posted November 8, 2006 Report Share Posted November 8, 2006 I have two large Russian notes that my grandfather had brought over to the United States when his family fled the Baltic region. I remember one is a 1912 Tsar Peter I 500 Ruble note. I think the other is a 100 ruble note (it's locked in my safe deposit box). Since I have a free PMG grading certificate, I wouldn't mind these notes slabbed, mainly for preservation since I have no interest in selling them. I was told that PMG would do this if the notes had Pick Numbers. So my questions are: What is a Pick Number? (I am not a currency collector) Is having these notes slabbed like this a good way to preserve these notes? If this is not a good way to preserve these notes, does anyone have a better suggestion? THANKS! Scott Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Here Posted November 12, 2006 Report Share Posted November 12, 2006 I've never heard of a pick nr. Sure it's a good way to preserve the notes. You could just put them in a currency protector and leave them in the safety deposit box. Jerry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
