I haven't seen any LGS/DGS COPs and then saw this $5 FRN pair for auction and it made me wonder if anyone here has seen any?

Wow, very interesting !!!
Sold for $288, including buyers premium. It went for cheap. I missed it !!!
Atlanta 1934-34A COP on HA last week. The seals are different shades of color but are they really a DGS to LGS Changeover Pair?
A LGS COP is possible, but the chances of finding one are very remote.
The 1934 $5's would be the most obvious, as there was a four year pause in printing.
$10's and $20's changed on or very close to November 01, 1937, but so far, no regular serial data has been located.
Star note data has though. Here is an example:
The note above is from the last batch of Atlanta LGS stars, September 28, 1937. Serial range was F00084001* to F00096000*.
For a COP to be possible, both the F00096000* (last LGS) and F00096001* (first DGS) would have to exist. FYI, the first DGS F star was printed December 06, 1937 from range F00096001* to F00108000*
