[QUOTE="SteveInTampa, post: 2568098, member: 27107"]I see one error, a minor faulty alignment error. An excerpt from page 52 of Fred Bart's fourth edition of United States Paper Money Errors, describing minor alignment errors; "Minor faulty alignments continue to be shunned by dealers and collectors alike. In the current marketplace, one magnificent example, at twenty times the cost, remains preferable to ten lesser pieces at one-half the price. Eye appeal means everything." Personally, I [I]interpret this to mean, that most error collectors prefer errors that are self explanatory to the viewer, and do not need an explanation to describe the imperfection. In other words, the in-your-face errors that jump out at you and are obvious to the non collector. My faulty alignment error; [/I] [IMG]http://i596.photobucket.com/albums/tt47/mbwizkid/scan0005_zpskz3oapi6.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i596.photobucket.com/albums/tt47/mbwizkid/scan0006_zps4qdmwfum.jpg[/IMG][/QUOTE]
