Photographs and condition

Begin at a distance and then move closer to full front and back, denomination, serial or prefix number, watermark, paper, edges, holder and certificate. Show both the readable detail and its position on the item.

Record paper, creases, stains, pinholes, tears, edges and any holder or certificate. Do not alter the surface, label or packaging for a better-looking photo.
