    I guess the OP is going to leave us hanging.

    See above posts to your thread. Not everyone uses FB and if they were in that private FB group they’d already know.

    Copy/paste would be nice.

    Seems to be a new discovery, just luck for the customer and the lack of thereof for the dealer.

    I'll admit I don't look at currency that closely.
    Maybe I should.
    I'm sure I would not have noticed.

    I’d say good eye on the customer’s part.

    No Facebook. My High School students say it is a bygone social media group . . . used only by old ladies to keep track of their grandkids pictures . . . . . . .

    Apparently this is an error note? Not a problem . .the time I took on this one is after Minnesota is down three scores with 2 minutes left . . . . . .

    I wonder if the dealer got a lot more cash business because of that ;)

    I absolutely love how many people are responding to this thread with “don’t use Facebook!”
    I too have no use for a platform that has so many problems, inherent problems.
    There is no level of temptation that makes it worth it to me and I am thankful I never signed up.
    I thought I was the last one alive.

    You are not alone. No interest in FB for me.

    Yes that what the article was about. Sorry for the bad link. Copied it from a group I am in. I copied the link and tested it and it worked.

    As noted several times above, only works for FB users and members of that group. So the rest of us have no idea what you are posting about. Several requested a cut and paste of the article, can't you do that??????

    So.... I attended the fun show in Orlando Florida today with a group of friends.
    After buying a Morgan at a dealer table, in the change,I noticed this 20$ mix matched serial number!!!! I couldn’t believe it! I went straight to the pmg table. It’s on the way to be graded:-)
    NGC took pics and will be writing an article about it!! Crazy day!!!


    I think I got it now. I put up that post and promptly ran out until late last night.

    Thanks for the copy/paste @DiggerJim great pic, too!

    How is this even possible? Does the serial number stamping wheel get out of sync? Is it likely there are many more mismatched serial numbers from that batch.

    Wow that's WAY off too.
    The single Numbering machine probably stuck or broke.
    Wouldn't be surprised if there were many more.
    Will have to check random $20 for a bit.

    That’s my thought also. There’s more out there.

    Got stuck at 54545151 and at least 5000 more mismatched SNs, perhaps?

    The federal reserve letter designation is “A” and that’s Boston. So those of you who live in that area should keep an eye out.

    Interesting how someone would even notice that in the middle of the hustle and bustle of the FUN bourse floor.

    Great transactions with oih82w8, JasonGaming, Moose1913.

    Someone else. She frequents the same Facebook group that I do. It’s an Error Coin and Rare Currency group.

    Let's say you find one... what is the approx value if not totally circulated? Just curious due to the effort involved versus the reward?

    eBay has”sold” notes from $200 to $1000. Of course condition is key.

    You have to divide that by how many up on a sheet of Bill's as it was probably only a problem with 1 machine IF it got stuck.
    Now if the Operator got the start number wrong, who knows how many.....and did they catch the error and just miss a few.
    Could be a 1 off RARE bill.

    While I couldn't get into the original article On FB (not a member of that group), I was really glad to see what the commotion was about, what a cool find!

    As for the quite a bit of the rest of this thread, there are damn too many lame posts that need to be answered with "OK boomer". As a boomer myself, here's a tip: the next time you wonder where the young collectors are, why don't you go to the mirror, make your worst twisted nasty face, fart and yell that question out loud. You will then see your answer.
