Ricksilver Posted December 10, 2009 Report Share Posted December 10, 2009 I have been searching the forum for a link to ERROR BANKNOTES as this is a very lucrative part of the hobby. Adherents search diligently for any errors and some specialise in nothing else. I was very lucky some 40 years ago to find several error notes in a bundle of new, uncirculated ones with serial numbers in sequence handed to me by my bank. This was cash I needed to pay my staff. When I saw the errors I sold the complete set to my father, who had a coin collection, at their face value. When he died I inherited his collection and there were some other notes with errors included. I believe there would be much interest shown if a separate link was set up in the forum for comments on ERROR BANKNOTES. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thedeadpoint Posted December 10, 2009 Report Share Posted December 10, 2009 Great point. I guess since only about 25% of coin collectors also collect notes, there hasn't been a big demand for an error note forum/series of threads. Thanks for the suggestion! I'd offer to help start it but I don't have the expertise or time! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balaji Murthy Posted December 25, 2009 Report Share Posted December 25, 2009 Just saw this. I do have an interest in error notes. However, I have no expertise in this. While I am fascinated by more esoteric errors, e.g. mismatched serial numbers, gross misprint etc, there seems to be a huge interest in even errors like, gutter folds, uneven ink or even imperfect margins. I would love to see any images or knowledge you have to share. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
