If you're going to bamboozle people by hacking up a sheet to make fake error notes, at least get the angles right and trim the corners

Well they are correct in their description.... it did come from a sheet of ones... :

CANADA ______ ONE DOLLAR ______ 1973 _______ OFF-SIDE _____ ERROR _____ UNC

This note is coming from a canadian one dollars sheet

This note is coming from a geant estate I received from my grand-father.

Yes - in which is weird as it is listed as an error note in the headline of the listing.  I just can't believe people do this.

I think it's stupid they would ruin an uncut sheet.

But I think some people see what "errors" go for and think they can cash in on someone who isn't aware.

This lies in that grey area between completely unscrupulous and just down right criminal
