http://cgi.ebay.com/Federal-Reserve-1995-Wrong-cutting-Star-note-2-Dollar-/170600217299?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_210&hash=item27b890bad3 I thought Star notes are suppose to replace error notes? I smell yet another of many uncut currency scam on Ebay! Did the BEP ever release uncut sheets of $2 star notes? I know they did and do regular $2 dollar notes. Heck I have an 8 subject framed!
Scroll down to the bottom of the red print where it says "NOT BEP ERROR." and "PAS ERREUR BEP.". I think that covers the seller regarding possible fraud, but, how many will actually read that far down? uspapermoney.info has this for series 1995 $2 notes: Circulation production, star notes: Begin serial End serial Type Length Run.part F 000 00001 * - F 005 12000 * fw n 512,000 1.1 F 005 12001 * - F 006 40000 * fw s 128,000 1.2 F 032 00001 * - F 038 40000 * fw n 640,000 2
I have several 4-subject sheets similar to this serial number. The BEP had sheets available between F00512001* - F00576000*. I believe this error is POST-BEP, and therefore, not a true error.
interesting, as mentioned above, he does say "not BEP error" - and he only states "wrong cut" (i.e. he cut it incorrectly). Hmm. I'd be interested to see if more than 1 person bids on it.
I asked him if it was fake. his response: "not bep error so someone cut it in a sheet . i tell that because serial number ..." he did not go on.
So is a wrong cutting worth a premium of $30 bucks? Wrong cutting? Give us a break! I wish I could contact the bidder!!!
The person was selling more than one of the "wrong cuts" - When I saw it, I just shook my head. First, why would anyone want to cut a sheet like that. Next, why would someone want to buy it? Along the same lines, I've noticed several high grade notes cut [correctly] from sheets for sale.
Just noticed that! Lets say he cuts up a 32 subject sheet of $1 dollar note to create 24 wrong cuts at 14.99 each! That comes to $359.76 for playing word games on a sheet that typically goes for $55 bucks! I can think of 359 different jobs this guy can do, and none of them play in the gray areas of thievery! I say let Judge Judy take care of it!!! [video=youtube;zuP1pXSvNJI]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zuP1pXSvNJI[/video]
