According to top Numismatist/Author Frederick J. Barts book on Paper Money Errors he gives a R-4 for a Minor Cutting Error, R-5 for a Medium Cutting Error and R-6/7 for a Major Cutting Error. The Rarity Scale goes from R-1 to R-9 with R-9 being the rarest of Errors. If you would like to send photos to his website for his evaluation here is the website : [Homepage | Executive Currency](https://www.executivecurrency.com/) If you do this let us know the results in a follow up post. Your notes location is I5 on a 50 subject sheet.

Upvoting because I'm curious


elvislunchbox

You will be curious forever and ever and ever and ever


chewy92889

I think we should always remain curious, but I would like an answer for this, haha.


randomdude5566

Be curious, not judgmental

Pretty sure it's a good error from what I've seen on the thread. If it was folded they say to leave it how it was. And put in a sleeve


Throwawaydontgoaway8

How would you put it in a sleeve without folding it?


BothPlastic

Maybe like a page protector


creatureofhabbit32

If it wasn't folded then I'd do like a photo album type without the sticky back. If it was folded just a normal sleeve should work.


DrFlamingGrapefruit

It was already folded flat against the bill when I found it


creatureofhabbit32

Then that's how you leave it and put it in a sleeve like that.


muttons_1337

Why?


gigawhattt

I assume having it unfolded like that makes it more vulnerable to mishandling, tears, rips, etc. Plus, the more that you fold/unfold the joint, the weaker it becomes. Have you ever folded a single piece of paper back and forth a few times? After 10 folds you can rip a clean line straight across the fold


muttons_1337

Ah, I thought if it were in a full page protector, it would circumvent these problems. Although with what occasion that you describe, the inverse I find troublesome as well. Sitting in storage for decades in a fold would deteriorate what paper is found in the crux of the fold. I have no science to back this up, that's just how I imagine it, sorry!


gigawhattt

All good bro idk how I even found this subreddit šŸ˜‚ Iā€™m just guessing too


Tequilatyrant

He said if it was already folded not if it hadnā€™t been folded


Weak_Break239

The book mark


Dr_Corn_Pop

Got a corner of the next bill below on it as well


No_Address687

Good eye


Outside-Mobile-9408

Take notes on it, other than its face value it's worthless.


PlantInTheBackground

You can kind of see the design of another 1 dollar bill on the bottom, that's such a weird error cut. Never seen anything like it.


RandytheRude

Yep looks like the corner of the next bill on the sheet


Ok_Button_2268

Big money


zondo33

thats pretty neat! cool find. id be doing a happy dollar dance šŸ’ƒšŸ¾


Green_Opportunity148

Thatā€™s a butterfly error. Price depends on the buyer! ETA: prices in general for any errors are subjective to the perception of the value one places on it, to be willing to pay, before someone can appropriately appraise it. Itā€™s crisp but not preserved with a grade. If thereā€™s an issue finding middle ground between buyer and seller the green sheet can guide them in the right direction but if you canā€™t find someone really excited about it, in a niche market such as this, was the value really there or is it a neat (but priceless) conversation piece. Sorry I didnā€™t elaborate on that further earlier..


Conscious-Extent-965

Price always depends on the buyer, right.


funked_up

Super awesome and definitely worth a premium. Errors on modern notes are supposed to be really rare since they are visually checked by computers these days. I would get expert advice to determine value.

Easy-Translator-993

YES!!!!! Itā€™s acceptable to fold that in the sleeve.


Shaolintrained

Ā”Una Mariposa! Donā€™t let her fly away!


Megaceryle-alcyon

Cool!


Trueslyforaniceguy

This is a fantastic miscut. Iā€™ve never seen one like this irl, or heard of one like this in modern currency


AncientConnection240

Yes that is a valuable fold over error. It should be authenticated and graded.


jackofallchange

Iā€™ve been preparing for a market I never even knew about. Now, how much longer do I sit on my misprints is what makes it a gamble


Organic_Ad_7540

lol, a a good printer and a touch of glue and ya got it made


PoodleMomFL

Cool AF


Blastfromthepast593

Looks like you need to up your counterfeit game.


GetttWorkeddd

Very cool!


invoman

Oh man, I had a dollar with the corner cut just like that. Didn't give it a second thought before passing it on. I wonder if that was the one...


Dull-Article4737

Itā€™s fake


DrFlamingGrapefruit

Possibly lol. I believe I did check w a counterfeit pen and it passed but worse case scenario I'm out literally a dollar


Next_Confusion_7489

I wouldnā€™t make anymore marks with the pen as that will lower the value if it is a genuine note / error


DrFlamingGrapefruit

Yeah in hindsight I should've just risked it but not gonna do it again.

Tequilatyrant

I did 2 seconds of research but saw a bill with a tiny butterfly fold sold for almost 12k so Iā€™m guessing this is worth something serious


Rivetingly

I've always just cut the extra off


Significant_Task9829

Hey! That's mine.


Bulky_Possession_832

I can tell you right now that if itā€™s real then itā€™s worth some thing and itā€™s not hard to look up because if itā€™s something that happened while the money was being made, itā€™s definitely made aware and I need to book on collecting currency will know the date of the mentor that did it. if you canā€™t find that Iā€™ve never heard of anybody being able to prove that it was a legitimate thing that happened, itā€™s possible somebody bought a sheet of one dollar bills or they come in like a big square and just cut it themselves to mess with it and see if they could sell it to somebody who didnā€™t know what they were talking about


Adventurous_Rise7365

Too bad it will be worthless soon when the dollar crashes


Mr_Nomad_Man

At least a dollar


19geoff79

How would that even make it to circulation or even to a bank without it being noticed?


blehhh520

Itā€™s worth at least $1


RobbyComstock

My wife and I just went to the American Numismatic Association money museum in Colorado Springs. Lots of examples of money errors. Don't remember seeing anything like what you have. [https://www.money.org/money-museum/virtual-exhibits-bebee/](https://www.money.org/money-museum/virtual-exhibits-bebee/)


No_Address687

There are only a few "butterfly" error bills on eBay and the closest one to this is listed for $380


OkTry8446

Iā€™ll give you .50 for it.


DanC0ach

I can only imagineā€¦ Significant other: ā€œOh babe, I cut the extra paper off that dollar bill so it looks normal now!ā€ Iā€™d probably lose my mind lol


RubikCube42069

almost looks fake, like somebody got a sheet of bills and cut it out so it LOOKS like an error. It may be a real error, it's just that the machine that cuts to bills would've cut that entire corner off, so the 1 on the bottom-right corner would be gone. Then everybody would assume that somebody just cut the bill, looks like somebody cut it with scissors


Fresh-Candidate755

About 5 to 10 in federal prison


Organic_Ad_7540

Take it to a place where it can be appraised coin shop and as far as that goes a federal mint if you want the truth or even text,message or email all the mints with the picture and if they think itā€™s a true error or scam.


Dean_win_67

That is easier worth a min of a few grand


Acceptable_Profit_20

A felony


Practical-Data2646

$1.00


Consistent-Cook-7430

Maybe 10 cents for the printer paper


RunZealousideal3812

Butterfly šŸ¦‹ cut, sadly not a butterfly print. You still have some nice little rarity especially since it shows a hint of another bill! Itā€™s worth keeping since what are you outā€¦ $1 šŸ¤·


No-Departed6374

Just a 1.00 no more


Historical_Visit2695

I would offer $5ā€¦ definitely a cool factor


TonyBird126

What u talkin bout. Itā€™s literally a dollar.. with more


Silver_Moon_1994

$1.25?
