No Serial Number ....now W/Pics

I am going out of town, but will post it next week. It has No serial number.

I have heard of people "bleaching" (for lack of better word) the notes to remove part of the notes to make fake errors on notes. I think you can also just use a pencil eraser to do it also but a picture should be sufficient to able to tell if it is a real error or one that was man made

Pictures will soon be forth-coming... I hope.

These are the pix of the front and back of the $1 FRN without a serial number. Sorry, it is not a silver certificate. Faulty memory.

I have the first pix up. Am trying to upload the second, but having a little problem. There is a picture of the reverse coming.

It is a 1999.

I do see what coinhunter is saying. That hint of what appears to be green could be just about anything though.

I do notice that the reverse printing as well as the underprinting on the face both seem a bit faded, as though the note has been through a washing machine. This is not to say that the green overprint has washed off in the washer; that isn't going to happen.

The press used for this series of note applied the green overprint to the serial numbers and seal in two separate steps, so notes can be found missing just the seal or just the serial numbers or both (as is the case here).

I believe, based on what I can make out from the pictures, that the note is a genuine error. Unfortunately, it is not all that uncommon as far as printing errors go, and considering the condition of the note, I doubt that a huge premium could be applied.

I know that you tried real hard to get the pictures to us Nancy, and now all we are doing is complaining about their quality, but might I ask, are these photos from a camera or are they scans?

If from a scanner, we might be able to suggest simple things to improve the quality of the uploaded pictures.

I would send you an email Nancy, but in your profile, you have evidently chosen not to receive them under 'contact info' in 'My CCF'.
If you are uncomfortable with receiving emails from just 'anyone', then your current profile setting will be fine. I think that if you wish to email someone here, and unless I am mistaken) your present setting would not preclude you from doing so by clicking on a username and then on the 'send so & so an email' button.

If your scanner allows you to adjust the 'dpi' (or size) of your scan (before you make the scan), you could experiment (by making several scans at several different settings) until you get an image of as close to 90 dpi as possible without going over 90 dpi (size shown to you in a box as you hover your mouse pointer over the scanned picture in 'my pictures' or wherever you keep your scans). You could then upload directly to your post without going through the hassle of photobucket.

How was that for a sentence? I never claimed to be an English major.
