It came out straight from the atm new back in 2008 and it has been kept safe so basically it's in new condition. As you can see on the back there is ink Smudge error with a perfect square untouched. On the front the brailles are missing and the queens ghost face is very seeable without needing a flash light from behind. I have sent it to pmg for grading and I'm still waiting but in the meantime I have not found a bill with these types of errors every before so what would the value be? I like to call it the hunted queen bill because it looks hunted from behind and you can see a ghost from the front. * Edited by Staff to crop and/or rotate images.

Please let us know the results. Also when you say "hunted", I take it you mean haunted? In the future please crop your photos as per CCF instructions, this saves web space.

Hadijak_ New Member Canada 5 Posts	Posted 02/09/2020 10:00 am Thank you for the reply, I'm new on here and yes I meant haunted. Regarding the atm machine I was told it was taken out in 2008 because I got the bill off a person Who didn't know it's value and I traded it in for a British old penny. Maybe he made a mistake but I took it to the bank and they said it was real and that was a bank error. Report this Post to the Staff
