Title: 2002 $5 Error & Exotic Serial # HNS 9299999
Post by: John_O on September 27, 2004, 11:20:50 pm
Hello All !!

Found this beauty of a note in UNC, straight from the bank  ;D

HNS 9299999 + an error to boot!!  ;)

Note was cut with Colour Bars showing (at the bottom). The top of the note was cut short.
It is still the exact size of a regular note.

Here is the back of the note, and the front to follow.

Any suggestions on why this might not be working for me ? :'(

I know on some printers you can not print the newer notes out, is it possible this could be the reason?

OK, I'll try your suggestion  :)
BTW: it is a 2004 note, NOT 2002

Very nice!  :o  One can see a part of the bar code in the lower part of the note.  Did you find it in a brick?

Actually....I've been trying to teach my girlfriend (who has absolutely no interest in this wonderful hobby), to watch for errors, cool & exotic serial numbers, and even given her lists of inserts to watch for.  :D

She has found many nice notes for me in the past, but this is probably the nicest. It was found with a small stack of fresh $5's. Don't know about the other serial numbers that were around this one. She phoned me from her work and said she found a note that looks funny. I told her to bring it home (very carefully). After I saw the #, it was too late the others that surrounded this note would have been dispersed throughout the day.
Oh Well..at least I got this one !! ;D
