<p>[QUOTE=&quot;gatzdon, post: 307670, member: 8247&quot;]The BEP has used so many methods to flag notes that are to be destroyed (red pen, crayon, marker, flags, etc...)&nbsp; My gut feeling is that the sheet this note came from was marked for destruction, but this note was missed.</p><p><br /></p><p>Especially before the dawn of computers, auditor&#039;s had a daunting task to account for each and every note.&nbsp; At that time, I believe inspectors were required to mark defective sheets, but not remove them.&nbsp; I believe the notes were required to be removed at a single point in order to help the auditors ensure none &quot;disappeared&quot;.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;ve never seen a red mark like this one before, but that would be my guess. </p><p><br /></p><p>If it is (maybe the overprint was shifted too far up for an inspector), and given that this is a star note, this would be an awesome find.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
