Any advise on these? On the $10 on the serial # the second to last digit is dropped a bit & the top to bottom margins are uneven ...possible error? Sorry the pic doesn"t show the margin.

I really like that #10 bill. I'm no expert and I am not sure that being a bit off-center is considered an error. Same with the number that is out of alignment. But those two oddities along with the star make it an interesting note.

I'd keep the $20 bill too -- but I am keeping all the star notes that I find. I know I'm hanging onto stuff that probably has no premium but I like them and I just collect for fun.

If you're looking to sell them, you'll need to wait for an expert. I'll check back to see what they have to say.
It wasn't that long ago when I thought that 'mint error' meant that something was wrong with my candy.

Buddy, yeah. I feel the same way. You just don't see stuff like that everyday. I keep anything that sticks out, out of the norm or is older than I am...1972 lol.

Isn't that 20 a fake note

The $10 note is interesting. How does the reverse of the $10 note look? Is it aligned properly?

The $10 note I would keep, because of the star and it is a 1950 A. The off center doesn't make it an error. The first photo was chopped making it look like the design was off the paper.

I would spend the $20 star. It is too beat up and it has a large printage of 9.6 million. Someone made a big boo boo at the BEP.
Rest in Peace

, massstealth!

I see spending money. Rule of thumb: they more obvious the error, the higher the likely value. If you have to point it out, no premium.
