Description

Doubled Face Printing
Fr. 2024-A. 1977A $10 Federal Reserve Note. Boston. PMG Gem Uncirculated 65 EPQ. Doubled Print Error.
No, you don't have your beer goggles on, this $10 FRN displays a riveting doubled face printing that could nearly make you cross eyed from staring at it. The entire plate impression of the face is darkly inked and sharply detailed with remarkable separation between the two printings. The portrait of Alexander Hamilton is distinctive with four eyes clearly visible. This dramatic error was instantly recognized and saved from circulation luckily preserving it for future generations of collectors to appreciate. Ample margins and pristine paper surfaces cement this note firmly in the gem grade range. If dramatic errors are your thing this note is for you.
Estimate: $4000 - $6000
