We offered this note as a CU in March 2005 where it realized $6,425 as "Here is a lovely $5 Educational that has wonderful centering, exceptional color and decent paper quality, but it is not quite a Gem. A piece only slightly better than this realized around $20,000 recently so the market is moving up. If you want a nice note at a sensible price, try to get this one". Not a $20,000 note but a sensible alternative. While I still see no evidence of a center fold I can see a fold on the left that I must have missed. The centering is amazing, as well as the color. Upon seeing the fold I'm leaving it ungraded today so clients can determine better for themselves.
