<p>[QUOTE="Jersey magic man, post: 4924475, member: 87624"]These happen almost anytime the BEP prints money. It can be found on all denominations. This particular error is called a wet ink transfer and can be a full 100% duplicate of the opposite side or anywhere down to just a very very small amount (like a tiny corner) . There are also different degrees of "darkness" of the print. The darkest print happens just after the first time the sheet does not feed or feeds crooked, or feeds folded etc. After that the ink starts to get lighter and lighter until it is all absorbed ( think I read it will all be absorbed in about nine printings). So you can get sequential serial numbers with the same error with various ink densities. Note errors are fascinating and collectable. Both raw and certified notes are available in the marketplace.
