Again, you're confusing "not worth more than face to you" with "not worth more than face to anybody". Just because a note is damaged, that...
Wow...I seem to have missed out on a lot of excitement over the weekend.... :rolleyes: Let me avoid the drama and make one point: It's...
It's almost surely from an uncut sheet. The BEP had many sheets of star notes left over when they quit printing 1976 $2's, and they sold them to...
I guess it depends on whether you're thinking of it as "research", or thinking of it as "a question". Yes, random Internet forums are probably a...
I dunno...here might be a good place to get advice like "those are obviously fake; don't waste your money getting them certified" or "those look...
No, that's not the idea. What happens is that the intaglio press misfeeds, so that it tries to print without having any paper in it. The inked...
The lowest number is on top. So the top note of the first strap would be 00000001, and the bottom note of that strap would be 00000100.
Got an email about this, so I might as well reply here.... :rolleyes: As errors go, an offset transfer is pretty common. So I don't think it'd...
Don't look for W's; look for M's that are actually upside-down W's. See here for more information. :cool:
Yeah, I don't think "test" is really an appropriate term here. The note was printed on the new SOI presses, but those aren't in any way...
It's not exactly Braille, but it serves a similar purpose--to enable those with limited or no vision to identify the note by touch. Each...
It's from a short run of 320,000, printed July 2011--and so far, it's the *only* star run printed for the 2006A $100 series. Most likely more of...
This doesn't look like any error type I'm familiar with. It's hard to be sure from the small image, but my first guess would be that somebody was...
As everyone else is saying: great page! :cool: I'm confused by the "832 bills per serial number" thing, though. There are 32 bills per *sheet*...
Um...he may have an odd first name, but Sherl Joseph Winter is definitely male. :rolleyes:
This document on the Federal Reserve website. Specifically, footnote c to table 2 says that $2's are included in the print order for fiscal year...
Also, if small-size notes are what you plan to collect, then don't worry too much about Friedberg numbers (or any other catalog numbers). They...
Close. But the "patent green" ink wasn't used on the backs of the notes; it was used on the faces, as an underprint to the black-ink design. See...
The $2 denomination was discontinued in 1966, and reintroduced in 1976. Sure, you could still find the occasional $2 in circulation during the...
What's especially amusing is that the bills are pretty much diametric opposites. The new one would suspend production of the $1 bill in favor of...
Separate names with a comma.
