    Shift errors are somewhat common, but how often do you find one on a star note ?? I picked this up on an online auction will get better pics when it arrives !! I'm pretty excited about it since this is the only pic that was up on site !! I want this one in hand !! What do you guys think ??

    I believe all error notes are based on eye appeal. That shift is pretty neat.Here is another type of star error that just goes BANG -

    I have no knowledge of FBN so take this for what it's worth. My concern would be that crease running veritical along that bill and wonder if there is another one (s) like it. I hope its worth it and think it is great note. Is there a reason why that "7" is bold when comparing it to the rest of the serial number and is that common?

    Congratz on the find!

    Terrific notes. I've not paid attention to error notes before. They're quite interesting.

    Thats got to be worth a small fortune.
    What have you found out?

    I paid $75 for the star gutter above. I have another 20 or so in my collection. I used to be heavily into star errors. There was a time that market was white hot but it cooled way down. I stopped buying when prices went high but now that they have leveled off I may jump back in.

    I think the coolest star I have ever owned was a star inverted third print. I was offered stupid money so its gone.

    I'm glad to finally see the whole note in its entirety.

    I'll say! Good luck with the listing. :thumb:

    If it doesn't sell are you considering to have it graded?

    Good luck with the ebay sale but that note is not worth more than $50-$75. I hope some newbie doesnt get burned.
