Not a day goes bye where when searching on the Bay for Natick & Web Errors, I find numerous fake errors, whether it be fake cutting errors from uncut collector sheets, 3rd print overprint (created) errors that also include part of the 2nd printing process or created errors from someone that doesn't know currency types.. I spotted this creation instantly.. Let's see who else can spot the problem with this (seller proclaimed) RARE one-of-a-kind error.. 322140821718I was going to send the seller a message, but why bother as shortly after this item was listed it had received 2 bids.. I should note that when checking the sellers "other items", this was the only piece of currency, and maybe they didn't know what they purchased (or found out & want to recover their loss).. |

I just don't how that is possible without violating the printing process.

How could this note get a defined partial 2nd print, and miss the 3rd print completely ?
I have never seen an error like this. I've seen, and own a missing first print (blank back), I've seen a missing second print with 3rd print intact, but never this type of example. I believe this is a post BEP error.

Looks like a bleach job to me.
Funny how it just so happens that a perfect portrait of Washington is printed, but the rest is not.

There are a couple of places (above the "R" and the left edge of the base) that look like the bleach went a little too far.
The border (on the back, outside the green field) also looks a little wide to me, but I don't have one in front of me for reference.

If you take a closer look, you will find the back of the note lacks IGWT, making it a S/Certificate, yet the front makes no mention of the Note being backed by Silver, as they used a FRN front..

And you can see where the green seal was also erased. Not a new note though; the reverse plate number is too high. 1995 at the latest. It bugs me that I can't figure out the actual series haha

 looks like I need to view the listing again, this time on my laptop instead of this Tablet... When I zoom in on the tablet, the resolution is poor and I see no sign of IGWT |

 Thanks for the photo.. Not sure why anyone would go through the trouble of removing this.. I'm tempted to ask the seller where they found such a unique error.. |

That "error" can't be genuine. The missing portions of the face printing are too neat and symmetrical to have happened without intervention.
The back plate 663 is telling, and I think the note is Series 1963A. Although Series 1995 notes had back plates as high as 694, the data that I've collected indicate that 663 was not used in Series 1995. If true, you have to go back to Series 1963A to find back plates in the 600s, and 663 shows up in that series.
The missing "IN GOD WE TRUST" threw me, and I thought it was a silver certificate. I don't have plate data for silver certificates to know if/where 663 would have been used. Yet if you look closely at the face of the note, it seems to me that there is a faint green treasury seal on the right and faint "ONE" in the same location with a faint "WASHINGTON DC" above, and a faint federal reserve seal on the left, consistent with an FRN but not with a SC.

I know this is not a genuine error, but the seller does not know this - - - - so it is time I play this game and have them think how exciting it is to come across such a awesome error note..

While the seller didn't answer my questions, he did Guarantee that this was a genuine note..
