Condition Report

Both notes remain in attractive, circulated condition across both faces:

• Top Note (E/E 4406074): Exhibits light handling and minor vertical circulation folds. It retains a strong paper body, crisp ink contrast, and clean margins on both sides.

• Bottom Note (E/E 3209565): Shows slightly heavier, natural circulation folding (distinct vertical and horizontal center folds visible on the reverse). It shows expected mild paper softening, but remains flat with intact borders and no heavy edge splits or staining.

Please see images as these form part of the condition report.

Shipping & Important Terms

• Courier: Items are sent by UPS with full tracking.

• Middle East Delivery Restriction: IMPORTANT. DUE to Middle East problems, at the moment I do not sell to Middle East countries affected by the Iranian Conflict. Please do not bid.
