This $1 is missing the plate position letters. Anyone know how rare this is?

Interesting. Comparing the above scan to a scan I have of a good note, I can see where the position information should be, but clearly isn't.

Also, when I get home around 1am, I will adjust your scan to remove the unnecessary white space on it and make the image a little more user-friendly in terms of dimensions.

Thanks for the info. I've had this note for a few years but never knew about web notes. I was offered $5 by a "well-known dealer" and am glad I turned that down.
