    Wondering how the printing on the middle note is off center but the other 2 notes are not? Any idea?
    Edit to add the middle note is also missing 1 serial number

    So the middle sheet must have been misfed into the press at an angle accounting for the 3rd printing being out of orientation. And as for the missing serial number, there was probably another sheet or flat object that covered and obstructed that serial number when that printing took place.

    @jfriedm56 Weren't those 3 notes all on the same printed sheet?

    Three consecutive sheets, one on top of the next. So the note ending in 890 was printed first, 891 printed next and 892 after that. F3 number near the top left is the note position for all 3 on their sheets. Here’s what a modern half sheet looks like.

    @jfriedman56 Paper money is so confusing.

    So if you want to learn more about small size paper currency, find yourself an edition of Standard Guide to Small Size U.S. Paper Money, 1928 To Date by John Schwartz and Scott Lindquist. It explains quite a lot of the confusion and how paper currency is printed. If you have more specific questions answered, I can always help and you can join Paper Money Forum.

    Offset (Sheet fed)
    45 years on press, cutter, stripping ( hay ? )....
    Trouble shooting mandatory. Sheets happen.
    PM me or just put it out here.
    If I may....The phrase, "wet ink transfer" does not exist, it's called "offsetting the sheets".
    Don't sit on the skid that just came off any type of press .
