i have been researching these bills and note that the colors are different than the ones I am seeing online. Could this be a printing error? Thank you for your help.

Can you clarify what colour difference you're seeing? It could simply be discolouration from circulation, especially on the top one where it's quite worn. Keep in mind that scanners don't always make accurate colours.

It's possible they were exposed to the sun or light
for a length of time.
Yellow is always the first colour to fade.
Can be pretty sure it's not a printing error
unless the colour was missing completely.

It looks normal to me for a note of that age.

Looks normal to me. I do believe that the notes getting dirty affects the colour and also just the handling can abrade the ink.

They've been well circulated and handled. Colors may have reacted to the environment.
