United States Series 1969C 10 Dollars Federal Reserve Note from the Philadelphia District with overprint misalignment error affecting the green seal and serial numbers, Friedberg 2021-C, graded PMG 35 EPQ Choice Very Fine.

United States 1969C - 10 Dollars Federal Reserve Note, Philadelphia District, Overprint Misalignment Error (Friedberg 2021-C, CB Block), PMG 35 EPQ Choice Very Fine

Overprint misalignment errors occur during the final stage of currency production, when the Treasury seal and serial numbers are applied in a separate printing pass after the primary intaglio face and back impressions. A slight sheet shift during this stage results in displaced overprint elements, producing a visually dramatic offset relative to the engraved design. In this example, the misalignment is clearly visible in the green seal and serial number placement, confirming a genuine production anomaly rather than post-issue damage. Read more →

New Zealand 1975 1 Dollar Replacement Star Note with R.L. Knight signature, Pick 163c star, serial Y91304453 star, graded PMG 66 EPQ Gem Uncirculated.

New Zealand 1975 - 1 Dollar Knight Signature Replacement Star Note Serial Y91304453* (Pick 163c*)

The 1975 one-dollar Replacement Star Note belongs to the R.L. Knight signature period of New Zealand’s decimal currency system and was issued within the 1975-1977 production range. Unlike ordinary circulation notes, replacement notes were created as reserve substitutes for spoiled or defective sheets discovered during manufacture. Their purpose was practical and highly controlled: to preserve accounting integrity and maintain the required note count when damaged pieces were withdrawn before release. For collectors, that functional role gives replacement notes a distinct identity within the issuing series, separating them from both standard issued notes and specimen formats. Read more →
