Condition: The item appears to be in uncirculated condition, protected within a clear plastic currency holder. The surfaces are bright and reflective with no visible folds, creases, or tears. The edges and corners appear sharp.

Metal Content: The note is explicitly marked as containing 1/4000th Troy Ounce 24K Gold.
