Star Note With Two Different Serial Numbers

zeewool...I was humbled by your post...and again....my sincere thanks for your helpful advice of "Please drop the issue here". Can you please give that same advice to that "respected" member, JMerrick!!

Okay, I have been fooled by online photos more times than not.... (and I am in no way accusing the OP of doctoring anything).... many times altered notes wind up in the hands of the most honest of people... so I have gotten into the habit of wary skepticism.... Here is what caused my "fishy" comment..... the prefix letter seems to be of a different width on each serial.... the last digit also seems to be of a differing shape..... More than likely just the distortion of the photo blow up, but I would like to see a better picture before I commit to anything beyond trout or flounder on this one.

ErrorCurrencyBoy.... that is quite a user name..... I hope you wouldn't mind me shortening it to ECB or Bob, or something of your own choosing.... I like to use short chummy names, and find that it only facilitates a friendly atmosphere.... zeewool is my name... backwards, phonetically.... some folks here call me zee, but lou is more correct.

Wow! The teacher in me wants to make everybody hold hands and sing the Barney song here. LOL! Let me help....first, I am a retired teacher turn convenience store owner. I see lots of cash roll through. A customer told me about star notes so I just started watching. When typing in the serial number on the info website, I realized they were different. My first thought was that it was fake. Did some research and found out it was possible, but still didn't know for sure if it had any value. Not sure if I want to sell. I reexamined the bill looking for what y'all have pointed out. Thanks. Will repost another pic because that scan WAS bad. I appreciate alllll your input. I believe a sign of an intelligent person is not one who knows everything but who knows where to find the information. So here I am. Oh, and I am a woman. LOL.

Hey ECB.... here is one of my few error notes... kinda old and dirty, but it is one of my favorites (inverted back).... what do you think? I believe it is in a TPG holder.... I'll dig it out and post more pictures if you like.

hey zeewool you do know that the bill has 2 different serial numbers? the 2 things you circled are the same on both serial numbers the only thing different is the first digit.

Thanks for pointing that out ckrakowski.... Yes, I do believe that you, the OP, and everyone else who believes that the note is a genuine error is most likely correct about it being a mismatched serial number..... however, I have seen (more than a couple of times) where a note had been tampered with, and even in hand, it was very difficult to tell..... I can only go by the OP's view that the prefixes are both "B", and that the last digits are both "7".... the picture provided (on my screen anyway) is extremely blurry, and most likely this is what causes things to appear strange to me..... Maybe you are capable of seeing this note clearly on your screen, where I am not.

edited to add:
One more thing: (On my screen), the right serial number seems to be dimensionally longer than the left serial number (which is odd to me), but again, it could be just the distorted picture that I am viewing.
