    It's a stamp from someone, somewhere, for some reason, after it left the BEP. Not an error note but a definite spender.

    Money changers in foreign countries sometimes mark money like that. Nothing special. Spend it.

    Small shops in my neighborhood (especially foreign owned) mark the bills they receive this way. I understand it is a way they mark the bills to know that they checked the bill for authenticity when they first received it. I suppose that if someone claimed to have received a bill that was counterfeit, they would be able to know whether or not the bill ever was in their register.

    Already stated but the BEP produces our paper money. The Mint produces ore coins.
