It has to do with the position numbers on where the note lies on the sheet of 45 notes. They seems to range from far left to far right. It 's the notes with the 10 dollar security strip on a 5 dollar note that are the keepers. Report this Post to the Staff

I would keep any notes where the security strip is shifted so far to the right that the barcode touches it. I saw only one posted. I have never heard of the $10 strip on the $5 note. Does anyone have pictures? I know that $10 were printed with $20 paper, and the watermark and security strip on the front don't match on some BTT and BTU notes. Report this Post to the Staff
