Great additions everybody. Just got this Type 2 National in an older style PCGS holder. The grade is one of the lowest I've seen with a PPQ...
I saw this as an anomaly back in 2008-2009 and bought as many uncirculated examples of early 2006 $5 notes and sheets as I could get my hands on....
I totally edited @cpm9ball original post to emphasize the truest words in paper money collecting.
