    - Very Collectible ...
    The story of Psychological Operations (“PSYOP”) in Vietnam is difficult to relate, and less known to the American people…
    There were a host of originators of propaganda and the lines of authority and control, are quite difficult to unravel … (
    as the result of the outcome of the war, most materials about the
    ARVN's PSYOP
    were totally lost
    ,
    or destroyed
    ) …
    One of the more attractive leaflets produced by the 245th PSYOP Company, depicts
    a soldier of the Republic of Vietnam riding on horseback carrying the flag of his nation and trampling the communist flag
    of the communist flag
    , which should have been
    Blue
    &
    Red ...
    NOT
    Green &
    Red ...
    The picture depicts both leaflets, SO THAT YOU CAN SEE THE DIFFERENCE, but ONLY THE GREEN &
    Red
    (Error) COLOR, is FOR SALE ...
    The text, on the back of the leaflet picture (
    which was very heroic,
    in a traditional military manner
    ), states:
    “Citizens Living in this Area, Please Take Notice: Don't Run, Don't Hide … Do not run and do not hide from the Allied military forces patrolling on the ground or above you in helicopters. Stay where you are until you receive further instructions. You will be told what to do. If you follow instructions, you will not be harmed.”
    Notice the
    “N”
    in the code…
    Since the 245th PSYOP Company was in two locations,
    they added the letter to show that it was produced in
    Nha-Trang

    INTERNATIONAL BANKNOTE SOCIETY (IBNS) GUIDELINES
    Grading Standards
    :
    UNCIRCULATED
    (UNC):
    A perfectly preserved note, never mishandled by the issuing authority, a bank teller, the public or a collector. Paper is clean and firm, without discoloration. Corners are sharp and square, without any evidence of rounding. (Rounded corners are often telltale sign of a cleaned or “doctored” note.) An uncirculated note will have its original natural sheen.
    ABOUT UNCIRCULATED
    (
    AUnc or AU
    ): A virtually perfect note, with some minor handling. May show evidence of bank counting folds at a corner or one light fold through the center, but not both. An AU note cannot be creased, a crease being a hard fold which has usually “broken” the surface of a note. Paper is clean and bright with original sheen.  Corners are not rounded.
    EXTREMELY FINE
    (EF or XF):
    A very attractive note, with light handling. May have a maximum of three light folds or one strong crease. Paper is clean and bright with original sheen. Corners may show only the slightest evidence of rounding. There may also be the slightest sign of wear where a fold meets the edge.
    VERY FINE
    (VF):
    An attractive note, but with more evidence of handling and wear. May have a number of folds both vertically and horizontally. Paper may have minimal dirt, or possible color smudging. Paper itself is still relatively crisp and not floppy. There are no tears into the border area, although the edges do show slight wear. Corners also show wear but not full rounding
    FINE
    (F):
    A note which shows considerable circulation with many folds, creases and wrinkling. Paper is not excessively dirty but may have some softness. Edges may show much handling with minor tears in the border area. Tears may not extend into the design. There will be no center hole because of folding. Colors are clear but not bright. A staple hole or two would not be considered unusual wear in a Fine note. Overall appearance is still on the desirable side.
    VERY GOOD
    (VG):
    A well-used note, abused but still intact. Corners may have much wear and rounding, tiny nicks, tears may extend into the design, some discoloration may be present, staining may have occurred, and a small hole may be seen at center from excessive folding. Staple and pinholes are usually present, and the note itself is quite limp but NO pieces of the note can be missing. A note in VG condition may still have an overall not unattractive appearance.
    GOOD
    (G):
    A well-worn and heavily used note. Normal damage from prolonged circulation will include strong multiple folds and creases, stains, pinholes, and/or staple holes, dirt, discoloration, edge tears, center hole, rounded corners and an overall unattractive appearance. No large pieces of the note may be missing. Graffiti is commonly seen on notes in Good condition.
    FAIR
    :
    A totally limp, dirty and very well used note. Larger pieces may be half torn off or missing, beside the defects mentioned under the Good category. Tears will be larger, obscured portions of the note will be bigger.
    POOR
    (PR):
    A “rag” with severe damage because of wear, staining, pieces missing, graffiti, larger holes. May have tape holding pieces of the note together. Trimming may have taken place to remove rough edges. A Poor note is desirable only as a ”filler” or when such note is the only one known of that particular issue.
