However, it seems strange because it looks like there was something were the district seal used to be. Can you scan it? So we can get a high quality image? Or at least take a close up like you did in the first image, but near where the "K" should be?

Not sure of value but it looks legit - would probably be worth having it authenticated by a TPG company.

They will probably charge you around $35 (I am guessing) but it will help when you sell it. PCGS or PMG are the two biggest for notes. __________________ Experience is something you don't get until just after you need it. http://www.banknotebank.com/?collection=uss656   11-17-2008, 09:09 PM   #9 (permalink) maxswebpage Junior Member   Join Date: Nov 2008 Posts: 8 Ok thanks a lot!   11-17-2008, 10:04 PM   #10 (permalink) Magman U.S. Money Collector     Join Date: Aug 2005 Location: Phoenix, AZ Posts: 3,018 My Mood: Yeah, those pictures helped It looks legit to me. I would also recommend sending it to a TPG. good luck!   11-17-2008, 11:39 PM   #11 (permalink) TheNoost huldufolk     Join Date: May 2008 Location: Michigan Posts: 4,281 My Mood: Isn't that the magic trick David Blane street magician(?) does? __________________   11-18-2008, 12:55 PM   #12 (permalink) maxswebpage Junior Member   Join Date: Nov 2008 Posts: 8 Thanks for all the help guys!

Commonly called a "Shifted" or Misaligned" Overprint. I don't know what the signature is, but it doesn't seem to be the initials of either the Treasurer, or the Secretary of the Treasury. Upon checking completed auctions, for similar circulated error notes, I'd estimate the value to be between $10 and $20. I would strongly advise against spending money on it with a TPG. There's no doubt as to what it is. Nice find!   11-18-2008, 02:14 PM   #15 (permalink) 9roswell Senior Member     Join Date: Jul 2004 Location: southeastern,ct Posts: 547 My Mood: pat someone   Page 1 of 2 1 2 > Bookmarks Digg del.icio.us StumbleUpon Google Tags dollar, money Would you like to support CoinTalk?
