Post by: friedsquid on July 31, 2007, 05:47:56 pm: Item #230157585972 on ebay?
I assume this is a cut note from the BABN 5x8 Thiesen Crow Sheet
Asking $80 I hope people are aware of this

Anyone who can operate a paper cutter can make them.

How do you tell genuine cutting errors from fakes?
If you look on page 320 of the new cat you will see that Two Dollar Bank note sheets signed Thiessen-Crow prefix BBU were printed for sale in 40 note sheets.
Some people cut up these notes so they appear to be errors but are not true errors.
If you go through your cat you will see the other sheets that were printed for the public to purchase.
Denominations, signatures, prefixes

Jeez, an unethical seller on eBay? I've never heard of such a thing! ::) LOL! This seller reminds me of a Three Stooges episode: "Antiques manufactured while you wait", i.e. waiting a day or two, not 100 years like you're supposed to... ;D

Post by: blumax on August 01, 2007, 11:01:20 am: I forgot to add - another hint: the seller never claims it to be an error or miscut so can't be accused of a fraudulent listing.
