Condition: I would grade this note as choice very fine or much better with all its details being well preserved. The note has several light vertical folds, some light soiling, a few minor light stains, and a couple of bumps to the edge. The note has no pinholes, no objectionable large stains, no graffiti, no tears, and no splits. The edges are intact with minor roughness. The corners are intact and fairly squared, with minor rounding if any. The note retains quite a bit of its original stiffness, sheen and crispiness. Just a great note to add to your collection.
