It is incredible to think that a single one-dollar bill can cost thousands of soles; However, it is true. For some people, such as collectors, a single dollar can cost up to a thousand times more than its usual value, as long as it meets some characteristics. In this sense, the “Gutter Fold Error” appears, a bill that has a valuable price because it was issued legally despite having a printing error.
The aforementioned currency is considered unique in the numismatic market around the world and has a monetary value of around 2 thousand new soles due to certain special characteristics. For example, on the EBay platform, this ticket has been found for sale with a price of 600 dollars, which would be around 2,288.59 soles.
You probably have a bill of this type in your hands, so below we will tell you what it looks like so that you don’t miss the opportunity to win a good sum of money.
WHAT YEAR IS THE DOLLAR THAT CAN BE WORTH UP TO 2 THOUSAND SOLS AND WHAT CHARACTERISTICS DOES IT PRESENT?
The 1 dollar bill for which collectors might pay more than 2 thousand soles was issued in 1995 by the United States Federal Reserve, according to La República.
This currency is valuable due to a printing error caused by the state agency that was in charge of its production. Due to some problems with the ink, the details that should have gone in the upper right corner of the bill were not printed, and now this particularity is considered by experts and collectors as a “special” or “strange” version.
Despite the error, the note might not be prevented from entering circulation. The first batch of one-dollar currencies with the error was distributed in 2014 in New York state. Two years later, another batch was distributed in Washington.

If you have this ticket, you should notice that it is between the series B00000001 and B00250000 or B03200001 and B09600000. In addition, it must have the Federal Reserve seal with the letter “B” and its serial number must end with a star.
The recommendation for people who have one of these bills is to go to a numismatic specialist to avoid being scammed and receive adequate remuneration. If this ticket is in good condition, its price might increase considerably.
HOW DO YOU KNOW IF A 1 DOLLAR BILL IS WORTH MORE THAN IT LOOKS?
Some immediate characteristics to identify the value of the one dollar bill in the coin and banknote collecting market is whether the currency is from the original National Bank one dollar series. Very few exist, as they were printed and given to individual national banks throughout the country at that time. According to some specialists, this can be worth 30 thousand dollars.
Another characteristic is whether the serial number is consecutive in ascending, descending order or if eight of its seven digits are repeated. For example, if the serial number is 77757777, even though the number 5 is in the middle, it is considered special.
Also, there is a bill from the “Legal Tender Rainbow” series, which is a favorite for collectors. This is called the “rainbow dollar” and stands out for its multiple colors, among which red and blue stand out, unlike the classic green dollars.
WHAT IS THE DOLLAR?
The dollar is a monetary unit used as legal tender in several countries around the world. It is the official currency of the United States of America and is also used in other territories and nations as a de facto currency or as an international reserve.
