It does show circulation with a vertical and horizontal folds and creases. It is lightly soiled but has no major objectionable stains. The note's edges are intact and do not show any appreciable roughness. The note has no graffiti, no pinholes, no tears, no splits, and no repairs. Its colors are clear, vivid, and bright. The corners are intact with rounding and minor bumping. Its ha s what I would term as great eye appeal and a very desirable overall appearance. It would make a great addition to your collection.
