Hi, I'm intruding from the coin forum with something that puzzles me, but is probably common here.

This Belgian 20 franc appears to be printed at an angle to the paper; but in fact the bill has been trimmed incorrectly.
Belgian-20-Franc

Does this happen often?

oh right... I remember answering this but maybe not!

If the other side is also at an angle, then this was definitely cut incorrectly. However, compare it with a regular note. If it is smaller, then it has been cut after printing. Most modern notes don't have this problem, but guess not for this one.

And this 20 franc, even without the error, is worth a bit (unlike other older series Belgian notes, which are worth almost nothing)
