1976 $2 note alignment Shift over-inking error AU58 1 fold 

To follow the pictures so you can actually see the errors, go by pictures by the number. 1 - 9

1) Shows Obverse [front]

2) Shows Reverse

3) Shows undamaged edges and corners and backplate #

    3a) Backplate # is 23, very low as backplate #'s can be in the thousands.   Us collectors always like low numbers including backplate 3's. 

4) Shows error of over-inking in the fields. Left side.

5) Shows error of over-inking in the TWO in the upper left corner. (check out other big twos.  Probably similar, same error.

6) Shows error of over inking on the reverse. (likely, these over-inking errors are all due to dirty rollers)

7 & 8) Shows any folds, bad corners and so on.  Of which there are none except for a nearly invisible wallet fold which keeps it from being uncirculated.

9) Shows, with a bright LED light behind the note, will show any holes, tears, rips, or demerits if any which there are none.

As to pricing, Whitman's Encyclopedia of U S Paper Money shows errors to be worth at least $20 - $50.00.  With this note having 4 errors, the error value here could be over $200.00 as a note having four errors is very rare.

That's what the BEP (Bureau of Engraving and Printing) has quality control teams to catch these things, reprint them and then you have a star note.

So, the note is $2 plus being in AU58 condition is another $5 = $7.00.  The errors are at LEAST $200.00 = $207.00.  Now I get $5 for husbanding this note for all these years, AND that = $212.00.  Ok so far on the math? OK.

Now eBay get's 10%. Don't they? = $21.20 = $233.20 & Pay pal gets 3% so we can use this venue safely, right?  Right! = $6.996 = $7.00 = $240.20.  And there you have it...  EGADS!  and YIKES...  Ok, I'll split the whole thing with you.   How about $120.10. OK?  OKAY!

Thanks for looking, if you want it, good luck in the bidding.
