Five $1 FRNs all 00X00X00. Five Gem CU or better $1 FRNs, all graded by PMG: 2003A G00100100H 67 EPQ Superb Gem Unc, 2003A G00200200H 66 EPQ Gem Unc., 2003A G00300300H 66 EPQ Gem Unc., 2003A G00500500H PMG 65 EPQ Gem Unc., and 2006 F00800800F 65 EPQ Gem Unc. Estimated Value $500 - 800
Interestingly PMG has labelled each of these notes as "Repeater S/N's" when in reality they are all "Radar S/N's". Ten years ago these two digit zero radars might have realized $25/note at auction. Today we expect a final price closer to $100/note.
We would remind bidders that at the time of writing this catalog, PMG charges $55 + a $10 submission fee + $5 to denote "Radar or Repeater" on the label, + two way postage and insurance for Standard Grading. Slower grading service will save you $20 to $33 per note, but the net net cost to you will be $45 to $95 per note depending on how many notes you submit and how long you wish to wait.

We are aware of four collectors who are passionate about acquiring all Zero Binary Two digit radars that are offered in the marketplace. We expect all four will be participating in today's auction. We are sure you will notice that virtually all of the notes in The Black Horse Collection have been slabbed which is not an insignificant expense for these radar notes.
When calculating your bid, please keep in mind that you can easily spend $250 to get these notes graded by either major grading service.

Pricing on Two Digit Zero Radars has increased dramatically over the past decade. We know that several collectors are buying up all of these Zero two digit radars when they are presented to the, and this has greatly increased the prices realized at auction.
