If we're going to be serious, I think it is an error/placeholder value. Regular Type 81's are listed for up to $1000 value on the compensation amount list but the LMG amount says "call contact centre." So it's some other screwup I think.

Yea I work in software. The $2 looks like the floor value.

What else is wrong then? I mean if this was not supposed to be $2 what if there are items that were valued at $850 when fair market is supposed to be $1000?

How can someone trust that the government is "fairly" compensating owners, when something that was supposedly tested has errors like this.

But I'm kind of confused, though, because there's only two Type 81 FRNs. Type81SA and Type81SR. The LMG version still uses the Type81SA FRN

You might have a point that all "call for price" ones show up as the $2 placeholder value. Can anyone try with another firearm?
