    Got this $20 from the bank and I'm interested in your thoughts on its value if any.

    A very nice second printing shift. Check eBay's sold auctions for a representative price. You see this quite a bit on $1 notes. $20 notes are more uncommon.

    If I got that from my bank, I think I would have fallen over!

    It’s remarkable how much circulation it saw before being noticed.

    Very nice find but I can’t believe the circulation it has seen before being found.

    pretty good shape for a 1993. I'm surprised it stayed in circulation this long.

    I found a very beat up solid 8 radar $5 in worse shape & some others which were, to a collector, pretty remarkable. 99% of the population don't give their notes a 2nd glance & perceive each denomination on a purely functional bases (what can this $__ buy).

    Nice find @jafo50

    I thought it was interesting how the front of the bill was offset but the back is normal. I guess it has to do with the actual printing process. The extent of my knowledge of paper money is saving star notes that I come across.
    Do you call it front and back or obverse and reverse as we do with coins?

    When talking about paper currency I use front and back.

    Me too. I can’t imagine someone seeing a beautiful woman and saying, “Wow! Look at that obverse!”

    As long as you don't say, "got this from the mint" or "it is near mint condition," where coins come from- you can call it whatever you like (in my book). Front or "obverse" & "back" (for "reverse") are pretty interchangeable (though I rarely see collectors naming the back of a note "the reverse").
