    I'm not saying that the note on Pawn Stars (serial K46458253B) was fake. It was 100% legit.

    I'm saying the note on eBay (serial K46458271B) was a fake. It's missing IGWT on the back and the slab is mis-printed.

    Based on the serial number, that note should exist...but I think the one for sale was a fake.

    Yeah, I also can't see PCGS letting out a label with both Fedral and Plater# right there at the top. And, of course, $30 as one of the denominations.

    Imagine if there were a huge industrial complex cranking out counterfeits of everything under the sun, and they had competent English speakers on the job?

    Notice how "Federal" is actually spelled on the note.

    Nice job spotting that misspelling on the label as well.

    But on the note, it is correct on the OP's image. It is the fake label that is misspelled.

    Maybe Dr. B was trying to see if the faked show Pawn Stars would accept a fake note, it worked, in my opinion.

    Two relevant stories that might be true:

    Guy excitedly buys choice unc 1914D dime at bargain price. It's in one of those screw together lucite holders. Gets it home, takes apart holder and discovers he has two coins - a nice 1914 Philadelphia and a nice common date Denver.

    With a bit of patience and skill you can split a bill in two. You split a ten and a twenty, paste them back together and try to pass them both as twenties.

    When did PCGS start grading Fedral Reserve Notes, anyway?
