I had taken the liberty of rotating and cropping your note for further examination before commenting, and see both positive and negative issues here..
The note looks to be higher grade, and at the touch should feel a crispness in the paper (I know it's 75% Cotton - 25% Linen), and not soft of limp..
On the positive side, I believe it is a genuine Insufficient Inking error and don't think it was altered..
The negatives out way the positive thanks to all the Fake Inking errors listed on
ebay everyday, and the lack of knowledge on genuine Errors submitted to PMG..
In all fairness, I started using PMG in 2006 and never had a problem until early 2016, when they refused to Holder my genuine BEP Cutting Error, and returned it as Questionable..
I did have to provide proof to the PMG Operations Manager before he agreed to Holder it a few months later..
After the last 2 Pakistan Errors I submitted last year, while they both Certified, they omitted the Serial Numbers on the Holder when they were included on the forms, the most important part of the Errors.. (I now Holder/Seal my own Notes)
I would be surprised if PMG Certifies your note on the first try, especially with all the Fake Errors on the Bay..
Good luck..
