[QUOTE="Eowyn, post: 847148, member: 24307"]Here are my observations: Beginning with 03, it is printed with a1961, and follows with 04 being b1961. This goes on through 08 being f1961. The next number, 09, starts over with a1961 and proceeds as expected through 14 being f1961. It then appears that what should be 15 would be printed with a1961, however 15 is missing. It then proceeds as expected through 20 which is f1961. It seems as though they are printing either 6 down or 6 across at a time so that every 7th bill is printed with the same plate. However 21 is printed with a1944 and proceeds through 26 with f1944 (once again 6 at a time). It seems they changed plates. Then 27 (which you expect to get printed once again with a1961) is missing. That's the 2nd straight time the bill coming out of a1961 is gone. 28-32 is printed with b-f1961. Have they changed plates back to 1961 again? Then, all hell breaks loose as they begin printing 5 at a time (vs 6 at a time til this point) as they now use a-e1941 and then a-e1967. To finish it off, bills 44 and 45 are missing. It seems 45 should have been printed with a1918 however it's difficult for me to imagine what plate would have printed 44 as they don't seem to be using f1967. Unless of course they are back to 6 at a time and I can't see f1967. EDIT: I JUST NOTICED THAT 02 WAS PRINTED WITH F1967, SO, 44 WOULD HAVE BEEN PRINTED WITH F1967 If they were using plates both across and down, you would have expected the same plate to have printed every 24th, 30th, 36th bill? Unless they cut the sheets and let them blow around awhile.[/QUOTE]
