Hi,

I was inspecting my 20's the other night and I found one with a small "dot" in the microprinting on the left side of the note (it's almost impossible to see).  I've attached a scan, any comments?

Regards,
Dean.

Could you post a higher-resolution scan of that area please?  Try about 600 dpi.

Hi Brent,

This is the best I could do.  As I said, it's very small and in fact, it's easier to see this "dot" on the actual note.

Regards,
Dean.

PS: The note has seen a fair bit of circulation and is in my opinion a VF.  The serial number is AYU4917263 front plate 66, back plate 81.

That's certainly a better scan.

In my personal opinion, I don't think it's much to worry about.  I'd spend it unless someone offered me more for it.  It's not worth the effort to even try to sell it.
