Spotted Fives
« on: September 19, 2008, 01:05:06 pm »
Hello all.

I found this interesting, so I thought I would share......

I picked up 50 consecutive notes (APM 0080146 to 195), and noticed a 3mm spot under the maple leaf.  The printing plate wasn't cleaned properly, or something like that.  The weird thing is, that it appears at irregular intervals.

The following notes have the spot:

0080147
0080152
0080158
0080161
0080170
0080195

The attached picture show some of the notes...

Kelly
