Hi, my name is Joe Medawar and I have an interesting and what I think is, a very rare Dollar Bill. 20 years ago I went to the bank and received an unopened brick of 1 Dollar Bills. Later when I was going through them I found that 2 were very tightly stuck together. One bill was flawless, but the other, although the Face Side is correct, the back-side is completly blank. I checked the Serial Numbers and have since kept the bill, along with the previous two, and following two.

Has anyone seen anything like this or know roughly what it is worth?

Any insight would be appreciated.

Can you post a photo of both sides of the bill? Off the top of my head, I can't imagine how this would happen. What is the date on the bill?

That's a valuable error, as long as it's real. Blank side error notes happen when the note misses a stage in the printing process, and in your case, the third stage. If it's in AU condition, you can sell if for $200+. Circulated can get around $100 or more, but it all depends on the date of the bill. Heres a link I pulled from a previous topic in this forum of a blank side error note on ebay:

Having the preceding and following bills in unc condition will increase the overall value, I should think.

Here are some of the pictures I took last night, I was off on the date though, seems like 20, was more like 12 years. Thank you for all the responses, any information is appreciated.

***I am having trouble attatching the pictures, I think they're too big***

I will try re-sizing them
