Good morning and happy holidays. Still new to the error/rare paper currency game. Found this today in my change. I dont know if it is anything but it seems the green seal (on the right of the bill) is lower than usual (or the "FIVE" is higher than usual). All the $5 I have seen have the seal higher to where the bottom of the word "FIVE" is below the seal. I`m pretty sure it is nothing but would like the communities advice. Stay safe everyone! :icon_thumright:

It's called a third print shift. The back is printed first followed by the front of the notes. The third and final print is the seal and serial numbers. This note has a very minor down shift. Minor shifts are all over eBay for a few dollars to a few hundred. They don't sell. It's just not a big enough shift. Personally I would spend it. Maybe at a coin show where I could find a real dramatic shift. Something that would actually be worth a few dollars over face. Good Luck
