[QUOTE="Joe Campbell, post: 8310642, member: 89857"]I don’t collect currency but occasionally I find cool stuff I can’t resist. Today was such a day. I’d like to describe what I see in the note (photo’s attached) and then, if possible, you guys can tell me where I got it right and where I got it wrong. This will help me learn. Also would love thoughts on what value you see in this note. I’ll post what I paid for it later, I just don’t want to bias any answers either way. On to the note.... 1) The reverse (1st printing) looks normal. 2) The obverse 2 printed is shifted horizontally between 1/4-1/2” as compared to the reverse printing. 3) The 3rd printing on the obverse is aligned with the reverse printing and therefor misaligned with the obverse 2nd printing. 4) This misalignment in obverse and reverse printing then requires a cut that intersects the obverse second printing. 5) There are 3 small holes in the note - looks to me like someone used a thumbtack to stick to to a board or something. Other than that the condition is that of a lightly circulated note. Please let me know if any of what I just typed makes sense or not. And again, would love thoughts on value. thanks for looking.
