It has previously been graded Extra Fine which we find a hair generous; we're grading it Very Fine. It's a well margined and very attractive note. Although about 50 notes are known of this type, they rarely seem to cross the market. Ten of them are impounded in government hands or museums and quite a few others are simply reported and have not reached the public market in decades." In that sale, this note reached $17,500 on an estimate of $15,000-up. The note is totally free of repairs, restorations or problems of any kind and the Rainbow colors remain quite strong. (20,000-up ) </FONT></TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE></TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE><BR><TABLE cellSpacing=0 cellPadding=0 width="100%" bgColor=#000000 border=0><TBODY><TR> Important notice: Heritage usually auctions material at the rate of 200-250 lots per hour. On some occasions eBay Live bid software or the Internet may not be able to keep up with the pace of the auction. We recommend placing a realistic absentee bid now as insurance to avoid disappointment. Occasionally the auctioneer may eliminate or reject an eBay Live bid, and the auctioneer may also reopen a lot after the close of the eBay live bidding (usually because we missed an audience bid), and may reject your bid even if it shows you as the winning bidder. By bidding via eBay Live, you agree that Heritage may award the lot to another bidder at its sole discretion under the circumstances described above or any other reasonable circumstances. Also please note that all Heritage lots purchased through eBay Live carry a 20% Buyer's Premium. Please make sure you read the Terms and Conditions before you bid.</TR></TBODY></TABLE>
