I found two strangly printed/cut bills and unfortunately can't take images of them. Are either of these worth keeping?

All measurements are for the white space on the top and bottom.

$1 2003 A FT = 1mm ; FB = 6mm ; BT = 3mm ; BB = 9mm

$5 2000 FT = 2mm ; FB = 5mm ; BT = 4mm ; BB = 8mm

I have no idea what M & Ms have to do with dollar bills.
Convert those to 1/1000s and I might be able to help.

Like I said, I don't have a scanner. I did but returned it because I'm going to get a digital camera instead.

And it shouldn't matter. I posted the relevent info which is the spacing of the image on the bill.

Ok, so did someone have a 32 count sheet of uncut bills and take some sissors to them? Or is it an obvious printing error? By the sound of it, you may have some non centered bills. I have one that is probably a lot like yours, but it didn't cost me much. I would keep them for sure.

Posting the serial numbers would address Tykimeister's concern.
