United States 1929 Type 1 - 10 Dollars National Bank Note The First National Bank of Taylorville Illinois Fr1801-1 CH 3579 PMG 30 Very Fine

United States 1929 – 10 Dollars Type 1 National Bank Note – The First National Bank of Taylorville, Illinois Charter 3579 (Fr.1801-1)

Organized in 1886, The First National Bank of Taylorville had issued large-size notes since the 19th century. By 1929, it was headed by president Roy A. Johnston and cashier C.S. Stokes. When the Treasury’s conversion to the smaller 1929 format began, each active national bank received serial ranges for new issues. Taylorville’s allocated blocks-E000212A to F000212A for $10s and C000064A to F000064A for $20s-were officially listed as 'not issued.' Yet this note’s lower serial number confirms that at least part of the earliest batch was printed and released locally before the bank closed. Read more →

United States 1996 50 Dollars Federal Reserve Note from the Chicago District with Insufficient Inking Error affecting the left side of the obverse, PMG 65 EPQ Gem Uncirculated, portrait of Ulysses S. Grant visible with pale printing

United States 1996 - 50 Dollars Federal Reserve Note Chicago District Insufficient Inking Error (Friedberg 2126-G)

Errors of this severity are highly uncommon on mid- to high-denomination issues. The Bureau of Engraving and Printing’s late 1990s modernization program introduced automated inspection and improved quality monitoring, but rare lapses still occurred, particularly when print runs were transitioning between older and newer press systems. Inconsistent ink application or uneven plate pressure could yield localized under-inking, creating the ghosted design seen here. Read more →

United States 1993 20 Dollars Federal Reserve Note from the New York District with Insufficient Inking Error on the reverse, PMG 67 EPQ Superb Gem Uncirculated, showing faint White House vignette and missing ink coverage

United States 1993 - 20 Dollars Federal Reserve Note New York District Insufficient Inking Error (Friedberg 2079-B)

This 1993 20 Dollars Federal Reserve Note from the New York District (Friedberg 2079-B, BD Block) is a superbly preserved example of an Insufficient Inking Error that drastically weakens the reverse printing. The normally dark green depiction of the White House appears faint and washed out, with many architectural and background details missing. Only fragments of the design-such as the central columns, the inscription 'UNITED STATES OF AMERICA', and the denomination numerals-remain clearly visible. The obverse, however, printed normally, confirming that the error occurred during the second intaglio pass dedicated to the reverse. Read more →

United States 1995 5 Dollars Federal Reserve Note from the San Francisco District showing Insufficient Inking Error on Face with faded left-side border and corner medallions, PCGS 58 PPQ Choice About New

United States 1995 - 5 Dollars Federal Reserve Note San Francisco District Insufficient Ink on Face Error (Friedberg 1985-L)

Certified PCGS 58 PPQ Choice About New, this note retains original embossing, crisp paper, and full color fidelity in unaffected areas. The subtle fold that prevents a higher grade does not detract from the visual impact of the printing flaw, which cleanly exposes the mechanics of Bureau of Engraving and Printing intaglio production. Errors of this nature are seldom preserved in near-uncirculated condition - most were caught during press inspection or quickly worn out in circulation. Read more →
