2017 A 1dollar minor Faulty Alignment error

I received this error at the Del Taco in Gallop New Mexico two days ago with my change. This is my first error found in the wild.

    Your note is definitely poorly centered but I wouldn’t go as far to say that it’s an error note. The general rule of thumb is that a portion of an adjoining note should be visible in one of the margins to be considered an error.

    Not an error, just poor quality control, A slightly misaligned note actually devaluates its worth.
    Collectors of currency, like stamp collectors, like the graphics, nicely centered.

    Nothing major but still somewhat interesting 🙂
