* Note: Don’t always look for just the single Note,
I personally like uncirculated Consecutive pairs & on the 30th of April 2017
a pair on eBay sold for $92.50 & on the 8th of May a Trio set went for $146, but as all Auction prices are for single notes (unless stated when single Notes haven’t gone to Auction) I have not included it.
