$1000 Bills??

I have the opportunity to buy this $1000 Bill and I was wondering if any of you could help me out once again? I have never seen one of these in real life so I am excited but not sure of the worth or if it being from Chicago makes it pretty common?

It is 1934 Chicago $1000, I have read up that 167,000 of them were printed in the run
I like the low serial number G00050553A

Thank you all for the help :)

Looks like it isn't too stained or anything, and I could not see any pinholes either

    What's the price?

  • JDsCoinsJDsCoins Posts: 135 ✭✭✭

    $2000 Even for it

    Looks good to me - I'd buy it at that price, seems like a good deal

  • I'm curious to hear how much this note is being offered to you for. That said, the serial number isn't all that low, nor is it all that rare. I would expect a note like this to sell for $2500ish on eBay.

    Offered at $2000

    Yeah I haven't found anything that says it is an exceptionally rare note, and it is worn, can tell the slight stains at the top.

    $2000 is pretty good in this market. Offer $1800 (or lower) and see what happens.

    Yeah I kinda was thinking the same,

    But want to make sure I am respectful to the seller

    $2000 is a great price.

    What’s going on with the lower edge, just below the portrait ?

    2,ooo isint bad take a chance if you want, jmo

  • That is a good price for Ebay $1K notes. It's not graded so I would ask for ask many pictures as possible. Ask for pictures with a light behind the note so you can see flaws such as holes. I light from the side will reveal folds and bends. How is the seller's feedback? AC

    2000 is a steal at current market

  • Yes it is a steal if all things are copasetic.

    If you take it to the bank you can always get $1000. So for $2000 you are only risking $1000 if it is genuine (which it looks to be).

    As someone else said the serial number is not low and Chicago is a very common District for $1000s.

    I see a center fold but can't tell if there are any others from the pics. The corners look to be fairly sharp. If the bill has some crispness I would guess VF30-35.

    High denominations are hot right now. If there are no problems it should sell for $3000 easily on Ebay.
