CoinFused2 New Member United States 26 Posts	Posted 12/30/2019 8:15 pm Found a couple of these $1 when I got money from the bank. They are uncirculated and appear as though they were colored by a child. The lettering is missing black ink and the ink is also outside of the lines. Is this fairly common?

muddyknuckles Valued Member United States 272 Posts	Posted 12/30/2019 9:11 pm I'd have it looking like this first thing when the bank opened especially if they are crisp chances are you may find more. Report this Post to the Staff
CoinFused2 New Member United States 26 Posts	Posted 12/30/2019 11:11 pm Okay... I am going to have to admit that these were actually for the kids at Christmas. We got a money sprayer toy and did the whole making it rain thing. I just rushed around to take the money back from my kids. Most of the money is all the same and some are really bad with the blotchy lettering. Report this Post to the Staff
CelticKnot Bedrock of the Community United States 12840 Posts	Posted 12/30/2019 11:22 pm While the quality is obviously sub-par, I don't believe these will command any kind of premium. Think of the millions of sheets of paper passing through the presses at blinding speed, for notes that are only expected to have an 18-month lifespan. These are not collector items and they are not treated that way. Report this Post to the Staff

Your comment has nothing to do with the topic and is a personal diatribe. There are so many other ways to spend a $1 note. Why would you say that in this topic?

SteveInTampa Pillar of the Community United States 4637 Posts	Posted 12/31/2019 10:33 am I'm guessing if you magnified most of our notes you would find irregularities, many like the OP's note. The notes printed at the BEP are supposed to look good at a normal reading distance, not through a loop. It's still an official document of sorts with signatures from government officials and serial numbers printed on a bond type security paper. It appears to be within BEP tolerances.

sel_69l Bedrock of the Community Australia 21788 Posts	Posted 12/31/2019 11:59 am Slightly too much ink was used and it has been allowed to 'run' a tiny bit. A common enough minor error, with Note printing. If this sort of error is minor enough, then the Note bearing such an error will be issued into circulation anyway. Tolerable, but poor quality control in my opinion. Report this Post to the Staff
