I don't know to laugh and call BS or is this for real. Found this at my local antique store. Should I buy or cry?
It’s a real sheet. Personally,I wouldn’t buy any of the “fake error” examples, especially at $35 each. I have a 2017 $1 50-subject and 5-subject sheet.
These are just absolutely painful to look at. I cannot imagine how many uninformed collectors fell for this. Edit: @Molon Labe, don't waste your money on the four subject sheet. These are quite common and can be found quite easily. That portfolio is a classic example of grandma bait made for outlets such as the Home Shopping Network or the Bradford Exchange.
On the miscuts, it looks as if someone took sheets and created their own errors. If the reverse is completely correct, and the obverse miscut, then it's probably worth a ton. But if the back is also 4 way miscut, then it's a fake error.
You can buy uncut currency from the Mint all day if that's what you're wanting. https://catalog.usmint.gov/paper-currency/uncut-currency/
Well the serial numbers don't suggest that they came from uncut sheets. Because those will be very high and start with 99. Please let us know what the backs of the miscuts look like.
I can see the O and E from the reverse, and they appear to be where they should be (to the left and right of Washington).
I think they are cut facing up. So this would be a drastic misalignment. Anxious to see the back. Please point out what you are seeing Garlicus.
I think uncut series 2017 sheets are no longer reserved for serial numbers above 96000000. @SteveInTampa posted a pic of a legit uncut sheet of 2017 notes with serial numbers that are similar to the notes in the OP. I feel that the notes in the OP are fake errors The 4 note series 2009 Sheet shown is real, but probably overpriced, IMO
Traditionally the BEP used to use only high serial numbers, but that has changed. Certain 2013 and 2017 $1 sheets use lower serial numbered sheets. The miscut notes are Faux Errors, often seen and marketed on eBay to unsuspecting buyers.
