Looking for input on this slight error, is it worth anything to a colector?.... As can be seen the queens head is much closer to the top on the note on the right and the diference between the two notes in the 2nd photo. Is it enough of a cut error to be worth anything more than face value?

$5-Error?

I know that some auctions may describe it as a: guillotining error resulting in near loss of top orientation bands.

I have a couple that I've held onto because they look very different.

The one on the right has a little more "character", meaning that the ink appears to be darker...or is it your lighting?

I'm pretty sure that is just the lighting... Although I would love to be proven wrong

Its just the lighting, its the couple mil diference with the cut of the note I was asking about. As can be seen on the pink and purple stripy part on the bottom photo. I was lucky enough to sell a $50 error for $500+ not so long ago and was hoping I had another error lol

I like that the top of the ink print above the eucalyptus/blossom's is just off the note. But sorry Rev, I'm not paying above $500 for this one.

If her head was cut off, then I would consider, but this one I think is just a normal print.
