Wife wanted these for awhile now, he still had them. Got a better price than before. She's Happy, I'm happy! What do you think as far as grade and retail? The $1 has a crease down the center, $10 looks Flawless. The mark on the top of the $10 is on front, back, and top of bill. Appears to be possibly more ink?
Awesome notes! The $1 would probably be between EF and AU, and is worth $250 to $300 depending on the specific grade. The $10, if truly uncirculated, might realize $150-$200. A "net" grade due to the ink could hurt the value slightly. It's like an ATM mark. Before workers stuffed straps of cash into ATMs, they used a marker to put a line on the edge of every other strap. This helped make counting the money in the machine a lot easier.
I know little of paper money errors... on the dollar note, explain to me how both seals (green and black) and the district numbers ended up reversed. Did the entire sheet get flipped somehow after the first printing?
Pretty much what we paid for them. Would like to have them graded but she likes them the way they are. So raw they will stay.
Not sure about type rarity but overall, the inversion will be more valuable than the offset transfer in almost all situations. Those are quality examples though, very nice... After the second printing. First print is back, second print is face, third print is serials/seals. The only way to get this error is for the entire sheet to get it.
