<p>[QUOTE="gold_digger2011, post: 1333814, member: 31938"]I took another gander at the dollar and I held it up to the light to see no upright "1" However, I tried to see if the it would peel off and I just folded it slightly to see if the edge of the upside down "1" would pop out enough for me to see it and sure enough there it was. It's crazy why someone would do this... Especially to bring a brand new possible error into investigation. It just causes others headache in the future and what good did that person get out of this anyway?</p><p><br /></p><p>For future reference, the light was able to pass through the upside down "1" to reveal the back side of the bill but this was only able to happen because whoever pasted the upside down"1" to the bill abraded the surface where the upright "1" used to be. </p><p><br /></p><p>The "error" looked VERY real and could easily confuse someone to think it may be an error.
