    I was going through money today where I work and came across an interesting $10 bill. You can clearly see the reverse design on the obverse and vice versa. It doesn't feel thin and it isn't fake cause I marked it with a counterfeit marker just to make sure. I thought somebody just threw it in the wash but I don't know much about paper currency errors so I was going to see if anybody had any ideas. Don't have pics at the moment but will post some tomorrow. For now, any ideas would be appreciated. :)
    Thanks,
    Tyler

    PS: put this thread here b/c it doesn't fit under error coins. figured this was the next best place

    i know someone who had fake $100s, when i used the the marker on them, they passed the test. i have no idea how, but they did. the only give away was after handling them, you had glitter all over your hands(used glitter, for the shinny parts).

    i am not saying yours is fake, but the marker does not always work.

    Those pens only let you know the material (it's not paper) the bill is made of is authentic, and I'll leave it at that

    Well, the pen works, the design doesn't look off, its got the security strip, and the watermark looks correct. I'm 99% sure it isn't fake. And I'll have pics up this afternoon MP.

    I heard soaking fake notes in pool chemicals makes the markers useless.

    i have no clue how it works, these bills were just to see how good he could make them. it was stupid that he even did it. he was not going to spend them, but if they fell into the wrong hands it could have been bad. i made sure they were shredded, just in case he would of gotten robbed or something. my prints are in the system, not for a bad reason. went to school for criminal justice, then police academy.

    now back on topic. i figured they were not fake. i was just making sure though. nothing is coming to mind, on why they are like that. maybe some pictures would help?
