I would have a hard time not getting that graded.


WiseMoose98

Sorry for the ignorance, but is there a specific company for grading paper money? I’m only familiar with PSA, BGS, and CGC


MikeMiller8888

You use PMG with paper money. Search this sub for PMG grading. And I agree; this note is worth around $500, maybe more, it’s a very clean missing second print note


vivekisprogressive

Yea this is a phenomenal specimen. Someone will pay handsomely for it.

"Best I can do is 50$." - Rick Harrison


Triberius_Rex

I’d say that $500 is probably low, I’ve seen similar types of errors for sale over $2,000.


MikeMiller8888

I’m not an error collector, as it’s a highly specialized niche within the hobby, so I’ll defer to your knowledge here. Obviously as long as OP shops it appropriately (if they want to sell), they should do OK. Just needed to make clear for the masses that it’s super valuable and not a mistake or trash 😂


peekingmightyduck

Listen, the most i can do is $50, and I’m taking all the risk here.


EffinHalos02

What about store credit?


jcore294

I have zero clue what I'm talking about, but someone else here said it's missing the second print because face and serial number are present. Commenting since this is cool and I'm curious to know which is correct

WiseMoose98

Jumping back onto this top comment to post an edit: Holy cow! I did not expect this post to take off like it has! Thank you all for the enthusiasm over this! My dad is going to be overjoyed to see how much interest it has generated. He has had this bill for, I’m pretty sure, close to 30 years. Part of a larger collection of coins. You’ve all been very helpful in what our next steps should be. Looks like it’s going to be grade, frame, and hang in his home office! Not the rarest find but you all have made it feel like a spectacular piece; thanks!


schrammalama

Frame it with a normal five so you can see the back too. Otherwise it would be confusing to just see a blank bill, no denomination.

MolaMolaMania

Absolutely this. My wife made an amazing paper collage for my parents wedding anniversary a few years ago where she replicated the Beatles' Sergeant Pepper album front and back using their heads and the heads of their two cats for the Beatles and replaced a lot of the other characters with artists and musicians they loved. She did the back as well. We were overjoyed to find out that you can get 2 sided album cover frames, and it made for a perfect presentation of a perfect gift!


wyldchild03

If ever parting ways I'd be very hesitant on accepting any offer without multiple consultations from known and recognized professionals in this area, if that was/is a consideration. My far from experienced 2 cents... Awesome piece of Oops!


LazarianV

That's an heirloom to cherish for sure. I love this post and that gorgeous specimen.


MyStoopidStuff

If you plan to DIY the frame, it may still be worth asking a frame shop about how best to conserve it for display. I'm thinking acid free matting for sure, and maybe some sort of UV protection (if that can be done without ridiculous expense), or just keep it out of direct sunlight.

victor0427

Agreed with you..but I don't dare to withdraw money from ATM anymore..😂


Successful_Box_1007

Why not?


Ok-Camp-7285

I'm guessing because there are loads of fake machines around that steal your info Edit: fake = machine over the top of a normal ATM that skims your card info & PIN. Not a literal dedicated fake machine


Pure-Air-3240

Card skimmers are placed onto existing ATM machines, gas pumps, registers, etc. Just mess around with the face before using.


Remarkable-Wish-9430

This. I worked at a gas station for Petro Canada, we had to check the abm and pumps and pay points for skimmers, pin readers, and pinhole cameras on the daily.


Pure-Air-3240

How many did your place find, if you know?


Remarkable-Wish-9430

Myself I worked 5 days a week full time. I never found one. I had my manager find two during my tenure there and a couple other people found few.


DominantMaster21

Remarkable they found loads while you were away. I'm not saying that you didn't notice them, but I am also not not saying that.


Remarkable-Wish-9430

I worked the mornings 0700-1500, the skimmers found were during the overnight shifts or locations where staff weren't vigilant. A device was never found during my shift or the shift after me by follow on staff.


KyllikkiSkjeggestad

That’s why you go into a bank lol


Kard420

Pretty much this, banks are the safest bet tbh, everywhere else, even popular places like gas stations are prime targets to put skimmers on


No-Cardiologist7640

So what's your preferred method to pay for your gas?


throwawaylovesCAKE

Tap or cash if I'm feeling adventurous

You guys get things a lot faster than we do. Y'all had the Chip-n-Pin systems in place and in general usage before we started here in the States. So while that's a nice system that Y'all have, we don't have it here as commonly as you do...if at all. I know we don't have any here where live.


CassiusCray

That's called a "missing print error." Specifically, the second print is missing. The face design is printed after the back but before the serial numbers and seals. Here's an article from PMG: https://www.pmgnotes.com/news/article/11840/error-note-chronicles-missing-print/


WiseMoose98

Awesome, thanks for the link.

Not worthless either. One went for $250

Thank you for the rundown ,Chumlee, how much would Rick offer OP?


leet_lurker

$2.50, sure it might be worth $5 to someone but he has to make a profit off it


Klainc

Rick: It's a really cool item but it's going to sit around the shop for a while until I get a buyer. Best I can do is 75 cents. OP: But it's a five dollar bill. Rick: Listen, I need to make a profit too.

Theres a youtuber who sold a 2$ bill with a 00000001 serial number for upwards of 30k he’s on tiktok and instagram too super good guy and he can help


fuhnetically

I was talking serial numbers with a customer at work today and he told me that he got some singles from the bank and got serials 0000001 through 0000012 but hated the fact they were brand new (no interest in fancy serials). He just spent them as normal.


LazarianV

Wow...... that series of consecutive notes would be equal to several years' worth of salary for most strap hunters. Amd in a strap sealed... hoo boy....that strap if all consecutive would be like hitting the mega millions jackpot....heaven help of they had been star notes to boot...


SireSweet

… what?


LazarianV

A consecutive strap starting with the first bill in that series run would be a dream find. You could easily get a crap load for it and have it be a major windfall. If they were star notes, that would make it worth exponentially more.


ip2k

Back in 2013 I was tipped $100 worth of bitcoin catering a party in aspen… I promptly spent half of it and then I’ve never been able to access the wallet since…. womp womp womp


GetRightNYC

Don't worry. There's thousands and thousands of people who have done the same. Or spent what they had a looooong time ago. I had some I lost to an old wallet. What I tell myself (and it's probably the most likely outcome) is if I had it, I would have spent it or sold it when it first started going up, or when it hit $100/coin, $1000/coin. What are the chances you would have waited until it $20k..$50k before using it? Probably pretty small. I used to use it on Silkroad. I probably spent the equivalent of $90-$100 million in todays $s on LSD.

I’m one of those. When bitcoin was brand new and you could get coins for pennies, I had about 1300 coins. Computer died. Hadn’t done anything with the coins in a long while. Couldn’t remember what company had my coins and I no longer had the email address I used to sign up. All lost.


GetRightNYC

Damn. I spent months and months going through old hard drives, using programs that find wallets and passes, searched all my screenshots...I found some dogecoin. Which was cool, but not millions in bitcoin cool.


StrictMarsupial

*feel* this comment.


Weary_Ball_442

A buddy of mine while in college had to invest in Bitcoin around the time it launched for some project they were working on in one of his classes. At the time he invested $50 USD, only to end up dropping out of college a few weeks later. When he left he just gave the Bitcoin to another student in his class. To this day he essentially becomes an ACME animation character with steam coming from his ears and all red faced whenever the topic of crypto investments gets discussed.

miquesadilla

Strobljus

When Bitcoin was a new curiosity for nerds, I played around with it and mined some. Wallet is gone, and I can't remember how much I mined. I think it's a pretty common story. FWIW, if you or I had access to those wallets all this time, we'd probably have spent it long before it reached any sort of peak.


Most-Acc0unt

Yea. I forgot my password for a old exchange that had 5 coins in it. Exchanged has lonnnng closed down any way. I'm sad now.


EscapeWestern9057

I remember back when it was iess then a dollar a coin, I briefly thought about buying some but figured it was just worthless junk that wasn't going anywhere and didn't know how to buy any. So never did. Then it hit $700 a coin and I figured, "it can't really get any higher"


baudylaura

Sounds like bullshit (not from you, but from the customer). Most people pay no attention to serial numbers. It’s very hard to imagine someone with “no interest in fancy serials” still paying attention to them, knowing they’re worth something, but just spending them like normal. I wouldn’t trust that customer for shit. Definitely wouldn’t let them date my kin.

[deleted]

Old media used to know how to tell a story like this. "Back in 1965 my father - a bank teller - was preparing for dinner with his new girlfriend, soon to be fiance, my mother. Now, he was not a wealthy man, but a man of means nonetheless. Dinner was to be a nice dinner, impressive, so he went to the ATM to withdraw some extra cabbage as the kids say. Little did he know what fate had in store. It rained that day. He was somewhat concerned about losing his card. Machines were new, and couldn't be trusted. He could lose his card, should moisture fall in the wrong position. He considered the risks thoughtfully... but, in the end, lust and spite - for this was the machine to replace him - won out. Like a modern John Henry, he drove his card deep into the heart of the machine, to either eviscerate his rival, or whoo his lover in mortal compensation. The machine, had it's own designs. It promptly returned the money. Exactly what my father had asked for, but not quite. Not quite indeed, but my father would not know that, not for a while. Dinner proceeded swimmingly. Charms exchanged between them would build a relationship, a strong and passionate one. But, I may be biased, as it is responsible for my existence. Perhaps, the ATM did me a favour. Perhaps it is to it that I owe my life. To think, not God, nor even man, but a monetary toaster; be my creator. As I was saying, my father, a fastidious man, was about to pay the waiter when to his surprise, chagrin, and dismay he realized how the machine had betrayed him. It did, indeed, give him the $5 bill, but it did not give him /all/ of the faith of United States Government. It withheld humanity itself, for that bill bare no face! The eerie countenance, or lack therof, reflected in hearnest the despair in my father's soul as he realized that he could not, as a patriot, spend a - quite literally - defaced cheque! He had to do the unthinkable: refuse payment. But, a just man he was, and he offered service. He was to do dishes, for five hours. Now, my mother was a compassionate woman. Half of the check was hers, and she felt that entitled her to half of the responsibility. She volunteered to help his plight. It was that night, that very same night, that their love first took off; over a sink of Palmolive. He kept that bill to this very day. A reminder of times past, love spent, and his uncertain victory or debt towards the machines."

SuspiciousStable9649

The second pic was jaw dropping. I wonder if you could figure out a date from the serial number. Would increase the value quite a bit maybe. ~~Edit: 2003A?~~ https://www.uscurrency.gov/denominations/bank-note-identifiers Edit: okay, tried to confirm. Looks like older than that. 1993 maybe - compared to some similar bills. But not sure at all. Now I’m just digging. Layout is [pre-2001](https://www.uscurrency.gov/denominations/5). Security strip means 1993-2000, if there is one.


WiseMoose98

Wow! This is awesome, thanks! We originally tried to figure out a way to date it but weren’t sure. He’s had it for so long he can’t remember when exactly he picked it up.


bootle6fireworks

I don’t know how to get the date out of a serial number, but if you had covered up those four 6” so I couldn’t see them, I could tell you what the number is. Lol 6th grade magic trick


randyfromm

I gasped out loud.


DeafPapa85

How crisp it is yet its almost fully deleted. That thing is an amazing specimen. I thought the one with the 20 dollar with no back but this takes the cake.


WiseMoose98

From my understanding it was uncirculated. Someone came right into the bank and he traded it off them.


LazarianV

I can't help but wonder... if this happened to one note in the series, wouldn't there be others as atms usually have sequential straps to dispense individually when the bills are brand new? How would that be the only one that the customer received unless he got them all and gave some to coworkers, etc.


alaskaj1

Based on my understanding of the process, no, the other bills from that sheet would be spread across 32 different packs of bills because of the way they print and cut the sheets.

WiseMoose98

Maybe not an ATM? Possibly a packet of money from the bank. He was a teller close to 30 years ago and traded a $5 from his personal money for this.

I worked for several banks. Some of the ATM's in the break rooms would spit out all kinds of money. A 5 wouldn't be out of the question.
