-I cannot see anything that would warrant this note to be designated as an "error." If there was signature ink transfer then I'm missing it & would suggest that it is definitely within the normal tolerances of production & QC parameters.

I can see what looks like a faint signature in blue to the right of the serial number, could just be the design or security marks playing tricks on the eyes but it jure looks like a signature to me. I dont know if it would be collectable or have any premium if this is the case. An overlay of where the signature is on the other side would help to see if it matches up with the markings.

Wrekkdd, I made sure when I took the picture to have the bill on a solid surface so there was no light shining through the opposite side. When you hold it up to the light the signature matches perfectly. That's why I was thinking when they stacked the sheets after they print the signature there was a transfer of ink.

It seems to be in alignment with the signature on the other side. Can you post a full shot of both sides? I looked at one of my 5s and it dosnt seem to match the signature on mine but I am in sure of all the signatures on the 5s.

walk2dwater, I'm sorry you can't see it. Where do I read about normal tolerances of production & QC parameters ? And I didn't say it was a "error" I just asked if it was normal. Thanks

So I took a picture of it with a light behind it so there is maximum light going through the bill.

Looks like it matches up with the faded looking one. Not sure about these sorts of things. Walk2dwater is definitely far more knowledgeable then when when it comes to paper currency.
