Amazing Defacing Roller Imprint Error

Defacing Roller Imprint Error Fr. 1921-C* $1 1995 Federal Reserve Star Note. PMG Choice Uncirculated 64 EPQ.
Only the second time that we have offered an example of this error type that was described by Arthur Friedberg in his article in the February 15, 2020 Coin World. In late summer of 2019, five of these defacing roller imprint errors surfaced. With the help of the Treasury Department and subsequent confirmation by Paper Money Guarantee, it was determined that those five defacing roller imprint errors were hand applied by a press operator. This amazing defacing consists of a large serpentine configuration in indelible red ink running from the bottom to the top edge. Also, the red ink has bled through to the back. The fact that this cancellation procedure was applied to star notes makes this all the more exciting. PMG graded the five stars 65 EPQ, 64 EPQ (2), and 63 EPQ (2). This quintet was intended to be destroyed, but they were able to slip into circulation for the paper money community to enjoy. We auctioned the 65 EPQ error piece in January 2024 for $6,600.
