I am new to this and was wondering how much this bill is worth. It was found by a cashier in a new pack of ones many years ago and has been in a book for safe keeping since. I have tryed to find something similar on the web but can't find anything quite like this one. Any info would be appreciated as I know nothing. Thank you in advance.

That is a monster error. I've never seen anything quite like it. My guess is that it's worth 4 figures. If it were me, I would get it into a PMG holder ASAP.

It is a very nice error. Do not leave it pressed in the book. It will press the italigo ink and damage the note.

very cool, in the mostly-front photo the unprinted areas are of two colors, has the paper discolored in places?

Agree that your note is a 4-figure error. Super nice!

Definitely auction material when it's time to move it along!

Great find!

Nick10 the paper looks as it did when it was printed. Very clean and crisp. As far as I can tell it was never folded beyond the obvious folds that cause the error.

As far as value goes, send your photos to Fred Bart at Executive Currency. I consider him the authority in error notes.

SteveInTampa I tied Emailing Executive Currency and they replied within an hour. Only problem is they want to know how much I want for it. Felt like they are trying to get a deal from a novice. I'm not even sure I want to sell it. I really want to educate myself on it. I just want to understand what it is that I have. Thanks for the info though.
