<p>[QUOTE=&quot;lettow, post: 1142457, member: 6986&quot;]I do not doubt that this is a genuine $1.00 bill.&nbsp; My doubts are whether the error is legitimate or something done after the note had been released to circulation.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>One thing that you have to understand is that no one, regardless of their expertise, should be telling you that this is a genuine error note based on viewing it as a scan.&nbsp; The only way to determine with any degree of accuracy whether this is a genuine error is to view the note in person.</p><p><br /></p><p>There are some notes that have been altered after release that are easy to discern as faked errors based on knowledge of how notes are printed.</p><p><br /></p><p>As an example, my wife brought a similar note home from the school she teaches at.&nbsp; The cashier at the food service held it back because she thought it strange also.&nbsp; IN this case, the Fed seal was also somewhere on the note that it should not be.&nbsp; That note was easy to detect as a fake error because none of the other design elements that should have been shifted also were not.</p><p><br /></p><p>What makes your note intriguing is that the design elements that should be moved with the Fed seal (the Fed numbers) are moved also.&nbsp; What makes me question whether this is a legitimate error is the lack of the lower Fed numbers from the note above which I would expect to see on this note.&nbsp; There may be an explanation as to why these numbers do not appear, however, which is why I have also suggested you take it to an expert to examine in person.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
