than I can type since I am not typer.
I just got these back. It was a blind crossover - I cut them out and submitted them raw with some other raw notes.
As usual in these cases, quite interesting. What do you think?

Seems like lower value notes were graded accurately. Higher value notes were a different matter.
Why such a big hit on the grade on the $2 star ? I find it hard to believe that it is only a 53 flat, unless there is something the scan is not showing.
it may be pressed
Makes sense for no Q, but I know of lots of 63's and 64's that have been pressed (sometimes doctored half to death).
On the other hand, I know of CGA 67's that are clearly AU.
What did you think of the grades after you cut them out, but before you submitted them, particularly the star notes?
I knew they were not what the original holder stated but I did not do a thorough inspection of them.

That was my original thought as well.
Nice notes, and nice grades.
Thanks!

I knew it would be AU. Yes, you cannot see it in the scan - only in hand with correct lighting.

Correct - no Q is correct grade - corner fold and soft corner and pressed with no more embossing that one would expect to see on a 67.

Well this is another example of one.
My assessment is the notes came back spot on. I just wanted them graded correctly. Kudos to Laura and Jason and company. Thank you!

I can see the 1923 E $5 with a pretty hard fold and wear in the middle, but the 1928G two does not seem to be bad. Without it in hand, it could be the paper quality is not there.
Yes, the $5 is a VF with a few folds (hard) - more than a XF should have. The $2 has been played with so no Q is correct - not as made quality.
