Huh, never heard of that error before. Thanks for posting your example of one Clay. Now another thing to add to the error "buy" list....

 

From US Error Note Encyclopedia by Stephen M. Sullivan:

 

Was this error very expensive in your opinion? Also, did you have to search a lot of places to find a nice example for what you paid?

Thanks for the link! :thumb:

 

Was fortunate enough to be given this note on another site. I didn't have any Hawaii notes so it was a very welcome addition.

 

Received today — Series 1995 $1.00 FRN with missing overprint.

 

You have been busy lately, very nice!

 

I'm always digging, scratching, and hunting for notes! :biggrin:

Someone's gotta try to keep up with Clay

Here's another great French note that arrived today. This one's from Algeria, P-106 issued in 1956. Bacchus (god of the grape harvest), a ram, and grape harvest scene.

I claim a foul. French artistry on banknotes will always kick butt against other paper money.

 

Nice missing 3rd print note Clay!

 

I picked up this group of star notes for a little over face value. nothing special. one does have triple 7's

 

These just came in today. inexpensive star notes.

 

Great looking notes, congrats on the new stars!

 

Here is the new note that showed up for me today. Hope you like it!

 

Darryl, that note appears to be in excellent condition!
