I've grown to appreciate originality. The chop mark added to the charm or history of the notes travels. And, I feel everything got lighter. It looks sanitized and less vibrant.
Is it me or did they take off quite a bit of black ink.
Look at the black bar under the governors signature and the four Js and the words The federal reserve bank of Kansas City Missouri and the small printing of Or by like deposit of other securities and series 1929. The signatures also look lighter.
Here's a tough "numerical" you don't see often, from the first year of small-size note production. The Kansas City FRN district had a print run of only 234K, a fraction of today's totals.
