Nice find did you get that in circulation ?

 

Very cool!

 

I'm sorry Tommy - If I find THEE error bill I have to spend it on my meat market special for 49cent/pound chicken quarters for a 40 # box - vac pack and put in the freezer!

 

Kinda looks like a bank stamp.

 

I wish this was mine. It was an article in Numismatic News.

 

You're doing good on the chicken, cheapest I could find this winter was 79 cents a pound.

 

I'm going with Nevadabell. It looks like part of a hand stamp from a teller.

 

Wow. It's worth $6,500? Time to go get a stack of $10 bills from the bank...!

The pre-printed stock error consists of an extraneous printing on the blank currency paper (or “stock”) prior to the application of the intended design by the presses of the Bureau of Engraving and Printing.

In this particular instance, there is a vertically oriented black underprint beneath the torch to the right of Hamilton’s portrait. As an anti-counterfeiting measure, the torch is executed with color shift ink, which changes hues as the note is moved from horizontal to vertical.

This type of mistake ranks among the very rarest, far scarcer than the double domination error; both share the R-9 rating tier as shown in United States Paper Money, 3rd edition.

Including this recent discovery, the entire census stands at less than one half dozen verified examples on all denominations and types of paper money; a testament to the absolute rarity of this type of mistake.​

Thanks Doug, that will clear up any idea of a bank teller stamp. Markus will be able to buy a lot of 49 cent chicken if he ever finds this. LOL

 

It's a cool error, but I personally prefer the more obvious errors. Errors you don't have to look too closely for, like mismatched serial numbers, missing prints, fold over errors, cutting errors, and of course, double denominations.

 

You would think that they would have asked Crane & Co. to take a look at it.

 

That's funny!

 

I think I figured this out...Crane & Co. used disappearing ink on the paper and it didn't rematerialize until the BEP printed it. What was I thinking?

 

I also have a pre printed stock error note, mine is a 2013 $20 US note. It has the word APPROVED stamped underneath the serial number, it was authenticated by David Myers and graded by PMG, let me know what you think.

 

I think it left the BEP as a normal $20 bill, and somebody put a stamp on it after it reached circulation. I have never yet seen any explanation of how someone can tell that the stamp is "underneath" the other printing.

 

Looks like "Hecho en Mexico"

 

The note was authenticated using forensic equipment, magnification was 100x done by the person I stated it was done by, it proves where in the process it was done. I have the report from David Myers, check him out on google.

 

Looks good to me Gary. If you can see that intaglio ink over the errant ink under high power magnification that's it. Where did you get this??
