The listing, *Error Bill* Lot I: $1 Bill with rolled / stuck digit! Cool & Collectible has ended.
Up for bids: An error bill - $1 bill with two stuck / rolled digits!
Look at the '2' in the left serial number - see how it's shifted down below the other numbers?
Look at the G at the end of the right serial number - see how it's shifted up above the rest of the serial number?
Collecting coins and currency is fun & potentially very profitable. Of all the type of collectibles within the currency area, "Error Bills" are one of my favorites. There are a # of different types of "Error" bills. Here is one definition of an "Error" bill:
"A note escaping the printing process into the public that has a flaw of some sort is an error"
Here are a few of the more easily identifiable types of "Error" bills:
3rd Shift Offset - When the 3rd printing, the one where the serial # and seals are applied isn't aligned properly.
Offset Transfer - When the design of a bill bleeds onto another bill. Commonly the obverse (front) design will transfer onto the reverse (back) of another bill or the other way around
Overinking - Too much ink is applied and parts of the design,usually the seals, are missing or obscured
Rolled/Stuck Digits - When one or more digits of either or both S/N's are out of alignment with the others
Serial Mismatch - When the left S/N doesn't match the right S/N. This occured most recently in the 2006 New York Star Notes, Run 3. Left S/N is B067xxxxx* and the right S/N is B267xxxxx*
Underinking - When not enough in is applied and some bill features are faded or missing
