    How the sticker made its way onto the note is mysterious, but it's possible the action was deliberate.

    gee, do you really think so?? B)

    Is that a US note or an Ecuadorian note?

    It probably was placed there on purpose but at the same time it is pretty cool!

    Well, CAC won't sticker paper money.

    That is one, unique find....I am not a currency collector, however, if I were to see a bill such as that, it would definitely not be spent for groceries :D . Cheers, RickO

    I predict people will start applying Del Monte stickers to issued notes and attempting to sell for big bucks on ebay.

    I like their canned tomatoes. It might be a good promo for them to start putting twenty dollar bills inside some of the stewed tomato cans. Sort of like Cheerio dollars except no danger of broken teeth. 🍅

    For some reason, this whole "error" reminds me of the "Lavern & Shirley" intro when they placed a "glove on the bottle scene a bottle of Shotz beer that was going down the line, and waited for it towards the end.
