SteveInTampa Pillar of the Community United States 4637 Posts	Posted 05/12/2023 07:50 am Welcome to CCF. Cool note. I've seen this before and believe it is called a Solvent Smear. My understanding is that the printing plates are wiped between ink applications and sometimes this happens. Edited by SteveInTampa 05/12/2023 07:51 am Report this Post to the Staff

John1 Moderator United States 56855 Posts	Posted 05/12/2023 3:59 pm Thank you for the added photo. Steve is our currency guy so you now have your answer. Very nice note. You should put it in a Mylar currency holder asap. Careful not to bend the corners when inserting it into the holder. John1 Edited by John1 05/12/2023 4:00 pm Report this Post to the Staff
