Title: Trimmed or cut under-size?
Post by: venga50 on January 28, 2006, 04:54:33 pm
I recently bought a 1954 $5 Devil's face that was 1-2 mm smaller in both length and width.  I didn't find any obvious signs of trimming.

Would a note that is smaller than 6 by 2.75 inches always be suspected as being trimmed?  I find that most notes are exactly 2.75 inches wide, but many are longer than 6 inches...so my take is that 1 or 2 millimetres less shouldn't affect the value of a note.

Any comments?  :-/
