Message:: [QUOTE="tbudwiser, post: 1308332, member: 32774"]Web notes are test notes for the $1 denominations during the early to mid '90s. The test project was supposed to make it cheaper and quicker to make $1 FRN's (because the demand fo $1's was so high at the time). Instead of sheets, the $1's were on a constant print roler kind of like how newspaper is printed. The testing failed and the notes never measured up to BEP's quality standards. These notes are usually considered highly collectible and they demand small to very high premiums based on series and condition. There were 3 series used: Series 1988A, 1993, and 1995. Only small chunks of these series were test notes howevr while the rest were regular FRN's. These notes are most easily identified by looking at the back and seeing the plate position at the top of the "ONE" instead of at the bottom right where the pate position # is normallylocated. I personally have very few examples including 1 1988A, 1 1993, and 2 1995's. All of my examples are poorly printed and I can see why the test project failed. -tbud[/QUOTE]
