<p>[QUOTE="gatzdon, post: 303801, member: 8247"]The tolerances that the BEP uses are actually quite forgiving. For a note to be considered "NOT" an error, it's face design must be complete (e.g. no part of the face design can be off the edge of the note); the reverse printing must be within the face design (if you hold a note up to a strong light, you will see that the reverse design is smaller than the face design. This is intentional to give them a margin of error for placement of the design without the note looking off center. The Overprint as they call it (in the past, the overprint could have taken multiple printings) is considered OK as long as the seals, district numbers, serial numbers, etc... is not touching any part of the design that it shouldn't be touching. You will find that it takes the overprinting being quite off before it doesn't look right.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
