Guide to Banknote Conditions

Here's a detailed guide to the grades we use for our listings, but keep in mind grading is subjective. Remember you may always return any note that you don't like within 14 days of receipt. 

• UNC (Uncirculated): This is a perfect banknote with no signs of circulation, no folds, no creases, and full original crispness and sheen. It appears exactly as it would from a fresh pack from the bank. UNC notes may still exhibit the "half moon impression" from when the mint applied the security thread (do a web search on "half-moon effect security strip banknotes" for details).
  
• AU (About Uncirculated): A nearly perfect banknote with very light evidence of handling or a single, extremely light fold that doesn't break the paper fibers. It retains almost all original crispness and bright color.
  
• XF (Extremely Fine): A crisp and attractive note with minor circulation. It may have up to three light folds (vertical or horizontal) or one stronger crease. The paper is still firm, and colors are bright.
• VF (Very Fine): A banknote that has been circulated but remains attractive. It will typically have several noticeable folds (vertical and/or horizontal), but the paper will still be relatively crisp and firm, not limp. There may be minimal dirt or light smudging, and corners show wear but aren't fully rounded.
• F (Fine): This note has seen considerable circulation. It will have multiple folds and creases, and the paper will be softened. There may be some dirt or light soiling. While still intact, it lacks crispness.
• VG (Very Good): A well-used banknote. It will be limp, with many folds, creases, and possibly minor tears into the border or slight discoloration. The design may be faded, but the note is complete.

Alhaji Aliyu Mai‑Bornu (1919 – 23 February 1970)
Born in Yola of Kanuri heritage, Mai‑Bornu initially trained and taught English before earning a scholarship to study economics at the University of Bristol (graduating 1957). He joined the Northern Nigeria Public Service and was seconded to the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) in 1959. Rising rapidly, he became the first Nigerian Deputy Governor in 1962 and then, on 25 July 1963, the first indigenous Governor of the CBN, serving until June 1967. Following retirement, he led the Nigerian Tobacco Company until resigning in 1969, staying on its board until his death.

Dr. Clement Nyong Isong, CFR (20 April 1920 – 29 May 2000)
A native of Eket, Akwa Ibom State, Isong earned his B.A. at Iowa Wesleyan and an M.A./Ph.D. in economics from Harvard. He taught at University of Ibadan before joining the CBN as secretary and director of research, and even advised at the IMF. Appointed Governor of the CBN from August 1967 to September 1975, he led during both the Nigerian Civil War and post-war oil boom, steering clear of excessive debt and building reserves. Entering politics, he was elected the first civilian Governor of Cross River State (1979–1983) under the NPN. He was awarded the CFR in 1982, passed away in 2000.
