[QUOTE="strauchfx, post: 951997, member: 26326"]I thought the same thing at first, but I can't see any remnant of the seal. The paper is a bit wrinkled and dirty in that area, but it does not look like ink. The gray appearance is the green ink from one wing on the back, it looks like someone "scraped" the front with their fingernail or something on accident, every other part where the seal would be looks normal. Fibers are still present in the seal area and it doesn't look like it was "sanded" away. After inspecting it when he gave it to me, my impression was that something blocked the print due to the wrinkles, it could also explain the scrape. My dad received it in change at a liquor store, I don't know why someone would spend time manipulating a $1 bill just to end up spending it on booze. That's good to know about eBay and thank you for playing devils advocate, as you clearly have more knowledge on the subject. How does one remove something like that off a regular note? (I don't want to do it, genuinely curious) what would be a sign of it being tampered with? John[/QUOTE]
