[QUOTE="SorenCoins, post: 2880088, member: 73708"]Thanks everyone! I will keep my eyes peeled and you all should too. I highly doubt all 50 from Texas came just to Denver, I am sure you guys have a chance! And yes I cited my source properly by showing the copyright. Huge thanks to [USER=2098]@NOS[/USER] for fixing my grammar up a bit making it a bit easier for you all to understand: I by no means am knowledgeable in bills, or bill errors. I am, however, a member of the ANA. While reading this month's edition of [I]The Numismatist[/I] I was intrigued to see an interesting article. I wanted to share this with any of you who aren't members of the ANA (which I highly recommend joining) so you can look out for this. Here is a brief summary. An employee at Coors Field in Denver noticed this bill while counting change. Now according to Frederick J. Bart, this error is a large examining print equipment (LEPE) press setup error. The LEPE was used on 2013s and made them in print sizes of 50 bills a sheet, so 50 may exist. Not only is this bill featuring mismatched serial numbers (B 557|9394 E and B55069394 E) but it is also missing a digit. The new pressing setup uses 12 positions, rather than 10. One is rectangular as well as blank and is not intended to hit the paper. But apparently the rectangular picked up the ink and hit the paper. Because they were printed in sheets of 50, at least 50 of these exist theoretically. Now hopefully, these all made their way to Denver (I live right outside of Denver :rolleyes:) and some people can find em. Now, a lot of this is confusing to me as I am not knowledgeable in paper money but many of you probably know all about this. Just thought it was interesting![/QUOTE]
