I returned some notes to an Auction House as I was dissatisfied with the grading given to the banknotes. One note was accepted as being over-graded but not the others. It was suggested my grading may be ‘too severe’. I have re-read the IBNS guidelines and agree  I may be a bit severe on grading, so I shall take the advice on board, but for sure, no banknote I sell is over-graded. Of this there is no doubt.
