<p>[QUOTE="dursin, post: 584777, member: 17425"]I had read something similar in a book on errors that I found at the bookstore last week. If I remember correctly, an entire missing serial number would have ranked as a major obstruction. Not entirely sure though and would have to go back and look as I didn't buy the book...was just trying to determine how high to go on that $2 which fortunately didn't get that high at all since it was sold as a regular pair of 1928 $2 bills. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> I also remember reading somewhere that one of the causes of this type of errors were some sort of paper tab that was attached to the separator sheets used back when notes were printed using a 'wet' printing process. They could fall off and obstruct one of the later overprints. Also hard to put a value on it, though I have heard that small size legal tender errors are somewhat more scarce than the other types.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
