Hi Malaysia Banknote,

Hi Pembekal Foot Patch ,
ReplyDeleteTerima kasih kerana melayari Blog saya.
Untuk process joint Auction MNS,anda harus adalah seorang ahli MNC,sila layari laman web www.money.org.my untuk keterangan lanjut.
If the note was UNC...that is NOT necessary to trimmed 2mm away.Anyway I hope that MNS might consider to regrade this note. This is just my opinion only.
ReplyDeleteHi Malaysia Banknote,
ReplyDeleteGood suggestion indeed,I will feed back to our board of authentication committee for reconsideration!
Thank you very much for your concerned! I always need your such good comments,this help to make us a better society.
Hi Malaysia Banknote,
ReplyDeleteItem in Lot:12 has been withdrawn.
Dear Malaysia Banknote,
ReplyDeleteAccording to the IBNS Grading Standards, a UNC note is "a perfectly preserved note, never mishandled by the issuing authority, a bank teller, the public or a collector. Paper is clean and firm, without discoloration. Corners are sharp and square, without any evidence of rounding."
There were no folds or handling detected on the $1.00 A/1 329622 note. Neither was the note washed or pressed. As such, it is technically a UNC note. It is probable that the note was trimmed to "remove" stains at the edges.
Although IBNS does refer to notes with slight evidence of counting folds (creases) or sight ripple in the paper as "AU-UNC", this grading is not used by MNS.
It is also not accurate to grade the note as AU, as according to the IBNS, an AU note is "a virtually perfect note, with some minor handling. May show evidence of bank counting folds at a corner or one light fold through the center, but not both. An AU note cannot be creased, a crease being a hard fold which has usually "broken" the surface of a note. Paper is clean and bright with original sheen. Corners are not rounded."
I would like to state here that banknote grading is both an art and a science - it is subjective and
dependant on external influences such as lighting.
Please be assured that each banknote authenticated by MNS are graded by a minimum of 2-3 graders with collective grading experience of more than 50 years, with the final assigned grade being a collectively agreed grade.
Hi Cho,
ReplyDelete(MNS Authentication Committee)
Thanks for the good piece of infomation.
Always happy to share, Dickson!
ReplyDeleteFor those who are interested to advance their knowledge on the technical aspects of note grading, I would recommend reading and understanding the Sheldon Scale, which is being used extensively in the U.S. for coins and banknotes grading. It is also used by PMG, one of the world leaders in paper money grading.

Cho Chun Loong,
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for your great infos!
