I have this five dollars which has the serial number BE 05 348078 in bold fonts that make it stand out from other fives that I have seen. Plus on the opposite there is a line that is running down through the centre of the image. Has anyone got this type of 5 dollar notes with serial numbers in bold font and can anyone explain what the line is?

(Sorry attempted to post image but rejected, I think my pic was to large. Will get back to you)

Hello, pics of the $5.00 are below-

G'day,
that doesn't ring a bell with me.
Renniks 2007 says there were no refinements to the $5 since 2002.
Please try to add a pic, and as much detail as possible about these "variations".

The shapes of the numbers certainly look different to me. The "bold" one seems to have squarer-shaped numerals.

I had a few notes that had similar effects. It's just a matter of how much ink was on the serial number press and how heavily it was pressed. I don't believe it's a serious error but it would be interesting if the number got smudged which is another story.
