I was expecting 25,000 to 30,000 to be Rick's first offer but yeah I think he wanted the bills a little more and didn't want to lose them. Especially for their rarity.
He said 20k on one tops and 20-30k on the other which means 40-50k tops if he even gets 40k at auction he also has to pay fees so he might make 2 grand. 35k was fair
Nah, those bills are worth considerably more than that, if they were graded...If a bill is not graded, an "appraiser" can lower the market value...It's morons like that seller that keep the pawn shop in business. A extra $200 in grading, would have got him the extra 10k...

I'd imagine with paper currency that old it's just not realistic to find notes untouched by human hands for one hundred years. What distinguishes the absolute best from just below it is almost definitely something far more substantial than whether someone held it.
Even if the guy wasn't really a certified expert, he should've had some thin cloth gloves to protect the antique currency. It would also look waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay more professional and believable.
Love how the expert squeezes the plastic currency holder to pick it up, potentially creating a bend in the note. Would have been easier and safer to use a fingernail to gently lift it up. Takes it out of the holder, talks over it, bits of saliva land on it, oils on the fingers are pressed into the paper. Never do this with rare stamps or photographs either.
To be fair, he likely has access to people who can restore things non-destructively as to either not hurt or minimize any lossnof value whereas the average person does not have such resources.
The reason the expert is not wearing gloves is because he has to feel the quality of the paper, and he has feel the paper Incase there are any modifications. And gloves make it easier for the paper to tear.

One thing that people never thought of is Rick has lots of connections and rich people willing to buy his rare stuff... so he rarely even has to do "Auction" and pay auction fee. So the auction fee is just his card to negotiate and he gets lots lots lots of $$$ from this strategy, great businessman. I would do the same.
