THE U.S. TREASURY NEVER ISSUED OR PRINTED ANY GOLD SEAL $2.00 OR $5.00 NOTES.....EVER! (they did print a yellow seal $5.00, but only for the 1934a north african serias and they all have blue serial numbers) THESE ARE ALL ALTERED OR COUNTERFIET ERRORS! THEY ARE ALL LEGAL TENDER NOTES WHICH WERE ALL RELEASED WITH RED SEALS AND NUMBERS, NOT GOLD! THEY HAVE BEEN EXPOSED TO FUMES OF SOLVENTS TO ALTER THE RED DYES TO ANOTHER COLOR, USUALLY ORANGE BUT SOME CALL THEM GOLDEN SEALS! THAT ARE ALL FAKES! MOST OF THE REPEAT OFFENDER SELLERS KNOW THIS AND SAY SOMETHING LIKE - THIS MAY HAVE STARTED AS A RED SEAL OR
I THINK THIS MAY HAVE BEEN A RED SEAL
WHEN THEY KNOW DARN WELL IT WAS.......UNTIL THEY ALTERED IT!
NOW IT IS POSSIBLE FOR AN UNSUSPECTING SELLER TO HAVE ONE OR TWO IN THIER INVENTORY, BUT WHEN THEY CONTINUE TO SELL THEM WEEK AFTER WEEK AFTER WEEK, HAVING A SEEMINGLY ENDLESS SUPPLY? CALL IS WHAT IT IS, THEY ARE MAKING THEM! THEY SHOULD ALL BE REPORTED TO THE SECRET SERVICE OR OTHER TREASURY DEPARTMENT! IT IS A CRIME TO KNOWINGLY ALTER OR SELL KNOWINGLY ALTERED NOTES AS GENUINE ERRORS! IT IS A FORM OF COUNTERFIETING!
I HOPE THIS IS HELPFUL IN KEEPING THEM FROM SELLING ON EBAY!
