This is a "false error" created by using chemicals.

Coin Frog, Do you know how its done? How is the rest of the green ink Not affected. I'm not questioning weather its fake. Trying to figure out how they did it and not affect the rest of the green ink. I just found this article https://www.antiquemoney.com/altere...es-currency/ I have no idea real or fake. This article is interesting though. "LOVE THE HUNT!"

Enzymes can be very specific as to what they react with; "accidental errors" where serial numbers and seals change colour, can occur when notes are washed in laundry with enzyme-based detergents. It could also be a deliberately-made error, using chemicals they've found that force the colour change to happen. Certain acids may do this. Quote:
How is the rest of the green ink Not affected. I'm not questioning weather its fake. Trying to figure out how they did it and not affect the rest of the green ink. The two green inks are chemically different. They will therefore react differently when exposed to the same chemical. Back-of-note green ink is chemically similar to the black ink used on the front of the note, and is generally more chemically inert and not as prone to colour changing as the seal ink. It's kind of like the difference between laser printer ink and inkjet printer ink: one is water-soluble and the other isn't, so if a piece of paper has both inks on it and the piece of paper gets wet, the inkjet ink will run and the laser printing won't, even though they're the "same colour". We also know it's not a printing error simply because blue isn't a colour being used on banknote seals these days. So there are no "buckets of blue seal ink" sitting around in the BEP that could get picked up and used by accident. The blue ink they do use, for the subtle background colour, is chemically different and wouldn't work if you put it in the seal printer (just like inkjet ink won't work in a laser printer cartridge). Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis

This note (not mine) was sold in 2010 and the error was attributed to inkwell contamination.  |

So the 50 May be legit, and the article I posted has merit. Now to confirm if a chemical caused this or Ink Contamination. This bill is not worth sending in to a grading company. I will just stick it in a sleeve and hold on to it. Thanks everyone
