Christmas this year was wonderful my wife gave me two different currency's a 1922 $50 Gold Note its not in great shape but very cool and a 1907 Woodchopper note. Today I sat down and inspected the notes. While looking over the woodchopper note I saw a spelling error on the reverse.
An engraving error is observed on line six of the obligation clause on the back. The error can best be seen by comparing the first "C" in "PCBLIC" on line six with the "U" in "Public" on line eight. I don't think the person whom sold it to her realized it is an error note. Check out the pictures. This is so cool.

So Excited

Just out of curiosity... Wouldn't all these "Woodchopper" notes have this error then? Or was this something that was discovered and fixed?

Bryan78, no not all 1907's have the error, once I noticed it I did some research and found a bunch of them without the error, I have always wanted a woodchopper note, I never knew about the error until today. I was really happy when I received this from my wife as a gift and today I was excited to learn it was an error. I can't wait to thank her again.
