<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Numbers, post: 1502722, member: 11668&quot;]A bit more detail:</p><p><br /></p><p>On older notes like this 1988A, the overprint has two parts: (a) the green seal and serial numbers; (b) the black seal and district numbers.&nbsp; It&#039;s possible for either part to be shifted independently of the other, or for both parts to be shifted together.&nbsp; But each part moves as a unit: you can&#039;t have the black seal shifted but the district numbers normal, and you can&#039;t have the green seal shifted but the serial numbers normal.</p><p><br /></p><p>On more recent series, after the redesign, the overprint actually has *three* parts: (a) the green seal; (b) the green serial numbers; (c) the black seal and district letter/number.&nbsp; Any one of those can be shifted separately, or they can all be shifted together.&nbsp; So on these series, it&#039;s even possible for the green seal to overlap a serial number, something which never happened with the older designs.&nbsp; (For the same reason, it&#039;s also now possible for the green seal and the serial numbers to be slightly different shades of green, if one of the supplies of green ink wasn&#039;t mixed just right....)[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
