Post Your World Error Notes

Here is quite a spectacular Irish error note, a One Pound note, 1974, with the date missing from the lower right, the serial number missing from the upper right, and partially missing from the lower left. The note should have a 6 digit number in addition to the prefix of three characters.

A (1972) £1 note is also illustrated below to show the correct positions of the date and serial numbers on a Lavery £1 note.

Here is a cool error note I picked up on ebay some years back.

It is an error on an Central Bank of Ireland £10 star (replacement) note. [Prefix T was used for the 1975 and 1976 star notes (D with a double number prefix was the standard issue note)].

This is the only Irish star error I have ever seen.

Banknote is folded during numbering and dating . . .


. . .resulting in the date being printed on the reverse bottom left . . .


. . .and a blank date field on the face!

Thinking about it, an error on a star note is very approximately 0.5% of 0.5% of circulating notes (if my math is correct).

The £10 star error had being doing the rounds for a year or more before it was put up on ebay, I had seen it at a show, so had had an opportunity to examine it closely which always helps.

Lovely example!

Very nice!
