[QUOTE="funkee, post: 1525290, member: 37925"]This is called an offset error. It is a full offset error, which occurred when a sheet of paper didn't make it into the press. The ink for the 2nd printing was transferred to the impression cylinder on the opposite side, and caused the front design to be printed on the back. Because the offset is light, it means that this sheet of notes was probably one of the last few to get this treatment. The darker offsets bring the highest premiums. The front to back offset error is the most common, but a full design offset is not. The book "United States Paper Money Errors" 3rd edition has a 1969-B $1 FRN offset front-to-back complete listed at $75 in Fine, $125 in Extremely Fine and $200 in Choice Uncirculated. In my opinion, this note might grade around Extremely Fine, but it is hard to tell from these photos. Because this printing is from a more recent and plentiful series than the 1969-B, I would put a potential closing price at auction somewhere between $60 and $90.[/QUOTE]
