This 20 dollar bill has some blue ink on it and when I look closer it looks like the blue ink they use for the little threads on the bills might have smeared I see lots of threads in the area with the blue. Please let me know what you all think? Thanks If better pics are needed I can try to take better ones
I'm no paper currency expert either, but to my untrained eye it looks like someone had it in the pocket of their new jeans and it got wet, with the jean dye running onto the note in hand.
Must agree with @paddyman98 . See the left upper corner @Christopher Taylor ? Looks to be curved & dipped into some liquid (or exposed to something). Feel it (& you will notice that the paper has been altered). It matches the line streak in question (so similar exposure there). Definitely post BEP (print) damage IMO.
That’s exactly what it is. Probably in a pair of new jeans that’s never been washed before and this was in the pocket.
I have to agree with @masterswimmer and @Collecting Nut on this one. In any case, NAV, no added value. $20 so spend it.
