Answer
Hello Lana,     

This note is not rare and rather plentiful in circulated condition. Only after the grade is determined can you use a price guide, or can it be properly appraised.

The main Grades are FINE,  EXTRA FINE and CRISP UNCIRCULATED.
I saw in an older catalog it has a retail list of $7 in Very Fine condition, $11 for Extra fine and $20 in crisp Uncirculated condition.
There is a person listing fixed prices at the URL below, copy the link into the address bar on your computer.
