Listed at 126.89 USD. 1976 $2 note alignment Shift over-inking error AU [almost uncirculated] folds BICENTENNIAL NOTE 1976. Really something to have an error note, in great condition, from 1976 our Bicentennial year, and at a decent price, considering usual prices for error notes. Follow the pictures so you can actually see the errors, go to pictures by the number. 1 - 11 The main error here is in the 3rd printing, the green inking. The Shift Error is the green seal is shifted down and to the left. The engravers intended it to be exactly in the center of the big grey "TWO" and it isn't even close. This is a major shift error. Keep looking at your money, you may find one. I have found many over the years. Time to share with you. 1) Shows Obverse [front]2) Shows Reverse3) Shows undamaged edges and corners and backplate #2. (VERY SLIGHT WEAR ON CORNERS AND EDGES.) NOTE: Please use eBay's photo enlarger tool to see actual condition of note. I do NOT want you unhappy. This is NOT an uncirculated note, so be sure you want it, as I cannot take returns as it is not in a sealed container and any mishandling could hurt the value. 3a) Backplate # is 2, almost as low as backplate #'s can be, (#1 is the lowest of course) . The BP# can be in the thousands. Us collectors always like low numbers including backplate #'s. Also shows the 'dirty' roller result in the field of the big 'two'.4) Shows error of over-inking in the fields inside the TWO's in the upper right side & lower right. Also, this same error [over inking] can be seen here and there throughout the notes fields. It's not a major error, but an error none the less. Likely caused by dirty rollers.5) Shows error of over-inking in the TWO in the upper left corner. (check out other big twos. Probably similar, same error.) Again these are errors although extremely minor. 6) Shows error of over inking on the reverse. (likely, these also are over-inking errors are all due to dirty rollers) We're going to call all the over-inking errors as one, considereding both obverse and reverse because these are absolutely minor errors. 7 & 8) Shows the main error which SHOULD be priced higher, but, in keeping with wanting you to have a GREAT VALUE, I will keep this error in the price stated and it really is a Minimum $50.00 error. But I'll include it so you won't see it in the pricing below. Shows any folds, bad corners and so on of which there are enough to keep it from being uncirculated.NOTE: When people find an uncirculated note, then see it is collectable for any reason, they want to keep it of course. They, not understanding collecting, fold it up, and stick it in their wallet [for some reason] and that hurts the uncirculated value. BUT it does not cancel the error value, face value, age value and still has a 'condition' value. So all these demerits and attributes need to be evaluated on their own merits (or demerits) to come to a valuation. Which will do below. 9 & 10) Shows, with bright LED lights on the edge, shows the folds, wrinkles and that's what keeps it from being an uncirculated note. with a bright LED light behind the note, will show any holes, tears, rips, or demerits, such as folds or stains. if any of which there are note except folds and not perfect edges and corners. 11) Shows the note, lit from behind, that there are no holes, rips or tears. The only demerits are a few folds. NOTE: I have a 'thing' about currency and it is; when I find a note such as this, which has folds and a wrinkle or two, but the fields are pristine and crisp, (likely due to someone taking an uncirculated note and stuffing it folded into a wallet or book. Not knowing how to store a great note. Buy folding it, you take from uncirculated to circulated and I feel there should be a variance in grading allowing for this mistake. But for now, we have to call it circulated. But it doesn't stop it from being a great showpiece for a collection, and a great beginning of an error note collection. OK? As to pricing, Whitman's Encyclopedia of U S Paper Money shows errors to be worth at least $20 - $50.00. With this note having 2 errors, the error value here could be over $200.00 as a note having 1 error is very rare enough, but two? NEATO! That's why the BEP (Bureau of Engraving and Printing) has quality control teams to catch these things, reprint them and then you have a star note. So, the note is $2 plus being in AU (almost uncirculated) condition is another $5 = $7.00. The errors could be at LEAST $100.00 = $107.00. Now I get $5 for husbanding this note for all these years, AND that = $112.00. Ok so far on the math? OK.Now eBay get's 10%. Don't they? = $11.20 = $123.20 & Pay pal gets 3% (about $4.00) = $126.89 so we can use this venue safely, right? Right! = $126.89. And there you have it... $126.89 With that price, which I feel any error note should be at least $50 per error, this is a great value. Thanks for looking, if you want it, good luck in the bidding.
