I don't know much about errors, but I've got two $10 bills in my pocket right now, and both of them have watermarks that look basically the same...
That's what I thought too, but apparently that's exactly the sort of thing we're going to be getting. It already works that way in some...
Yep, that's why they call them "greenbacks". Today's currency is still printed that way, although it's harder to notice now that there are...
Um...that's talking about currency printed in 1996, not 1862. Unlikely to be applicable here. Does anybody actually know whether the seals and...
Well, look at that...we've got $2 K..Q sheets after all.
Nope, just another star note. Occasionally you'll see a strap of star notes with a random out-of-sequence star note substituted into it.
When star notes were first invented in 1910, the star was placed in the prefix position on all currency types. When Federal Reserve currency came...
It's actually 19080000, but pretty close. The standard print run was 360,000 notes (20,000 sheets of 18), so the cutoff serial has to be a...
I don't have any new word on the $2 Lucky Money sheets, no. The ordinary 2013 $1 uncut sheets have just come out in a new block, though, the...
I've had two reports of them, but I don't have a photo yet either. Yes, they've got the large-font face plate number. If anyone has a photo to...
I don't want to drift into politics here, but it was less the "general public" and more the supporters of IGWT, who are sometimes, shall we say,...
Um...not exactly. The legislation requiring IGWT to be added to the currency was specifically worded in such a way as to allow the BEP to phase...
Well, in that case, happy birthday! :)
That would be my guess. Same with the 1934C $20, when the back design was updated mid-series. Similar with the 1934/34A mules, where the change...
That meaning is also in common use. It's a bit confusing when "bookend" is used to mean three different things, but that's the situation we're...
Yes, and they're generally only of interest when the remaining digits are solid zeroes--not a random string of digits like the examples you gave....
Other way around. If they were COPE, *all* of them would have the same plate position. But with LEPE, the position changes every 100 serials, so...
But it isn't "it" at all. Intaglio printing, by definition, leaves ink that's raised above the paper. Rubber stamps use much more watery ink...
I think it left the BEP as a normal $20 bill, and somebody put a stamp on it after it reached circulation. I have never yet seen any explanation...
You're mixing up LEPE with 50-subject printing. All of the Series 2009 $1's were printed in 32-subject sheets, so there are no I, J, or 5...
Separate names with a comma.
