The value of the note???? I think you have to ask an auctionhouse. I will ask for you in Holland.

My catalogue for this note (10 years old now) lists the note and it's bretheren in other denominations, but as for price, there is only the dash - . This indicates that there is no reletively recent history of it's being bought/sold and no price can therefore be obtained from estimates of those transactions. Your note may indeed be rare, but the word "Rare" was not denoted in my particular catalog.

 

I agree that to ascertain the value, you should have an auction house which specializes in currency (such as Heritage Auctions) give you an estimate. This would only be an estimate based on like sales of similar notes, and the actual price of an auction may be higher or lower than their estimate.
