Hi, I just found a $20 series 2006, the serial number on it seems to be raised, it is raised about 1 or 2 cm, and moved over a a little bit to the right, I will post pictures of it later tonight, but does anyone know if this is considered an error, or what its value would be, or what the error would be called? *UPDATE* - After I posted this, I noticed the topic that looked similar to the note I just found, but my note has just the serial number, and the seal moved over... https://goccf.com/t/41990Thanks! -Dillon Edited by Dillon

I'm not much of a currency collector but more of a hoarder! This is definately an error note. Unfortunately it's not in great condition. I don't know how much value it would have in this condition. But me personally, I would save it. Get it in a holder to maintain its current condition. More knowledgeable posts will probably follow.

Sorry I couldn't be more help! I have a currency book somewhere just for reference because I do pull some out of circulation myself! But I honestly don't know where it's at right now! A friend of mine found a $1.00 bill one time that had No serial #'s or green seal! I tried to purchase it from him, but no luck! He wasn't even a collector!

No serial numbers or seal? I have one with VERY FAINT serial numbers and no trace of the seal over ONE.  Image:  S5001042.jpg96.73 KB |

hmm.. looks as if someone took an eraser to it. Can you check the ONE where the treasury seal is and see if it's faded a bit or not?

huh.... in the pic the ONE looks all right, but look at the right side serial number. The F44 number is much lighter than the 380V.
Can you also check the paper color of the erased area? Normally if it's erased, then the paper there would be much lighter.

The paper appears to be the same color all around the suspected areas of interest, and the impressions of the serial numbers are there, along with minor inking present. Image: S5001062.jpg97.94 KB Image: S5001067.jpg98.67 KB |

This may be another option. I received some brand new consective serial numbered bills from an ATM machine last year. One color of ink, I noticed was not dry. I wiped it off with my thumb. It took it almost all of the way off. It really did not even smudge over area around the image. It just left a very faint image of the circle that indicates United States Federal Reserve System.

Kinda strange that ink would just rub off, could the bills have been "wetted" with some type of fluid which "quenched" the ink?

washed or soaked banknote? I can see ink blotting. Quote:

ATM machines produces heat and sometimes that happens with the banknote. Edited by manila galleon trade
