I do wonder if this should be referred to as an error or a variety. Engraving the smaller plate number for use at the FW facility was a mistake, but the note is certainly printed as made without error. Just semantics, as it doesn't change what it is, but I'm just thinking (typing) out loud.


Exactly my thoughts I believe many people are all too eager to name just about anything ERROR so it commands astronomical sums of money on ebay.

In the beginning I called the bp295 fw notes a mule back plate thinking that it was to print notes in DC, I learned afterwards the error currency books called this a engraving error!.
