Owner's Description

Purchased at Lyn Knight auction. The description is as follows..."This note was graded AU by Heritage in a 2004 sale where it realized $4,312. Recently a VF 30 realized $1,057. Check out the charter number, it sounds like a cheer - '2-4-6-8, who do we appreciate'." How it was graded AU by Heritage and returned to me as VF-30. Quite astounding. PMG has only graded 11notes from this charter so not a common note. Had I seen the weak inking on the reverse, I would have probably passed on the note. However, several of my ungraded LK notes were not only spot on regarding the estimated grade, the reverse has usually been a pleasant surprise. It gave me a false sense of security and alas, the party had to end. I still love the note, just disappointed I finally got schooled to the mean.
