1934-A, $10 World War II Emergency Note. Hawaii ERROR NOTE Missing HAWAII Overprint on Back. . Fr-2303. . KL-2258. PCGS Currency has graded this spectacular error note Apparent Fine 15, with some paper clip rust stains mentioned for accuracy. It is completely missing the "HAWAII" overprint from the back, which means it skipped a step in the printing process. Any Hawaii error is a rare item, much more so such a dramatic error as this. A similar note sold for more than $3,300 in January, 2007; expect a similar realization today.
Estimated Value $2,500 - 3,500.

1934-A, $10 World War II Emergency Note. Hawaii EROR NOTE. Misaligned HAWAII Overprint on Back. . Fr-2303. . KL-2258. This PCGS Currency-graded Very Fine 20 example has a misaligned overprint on the back, with the bold black HAWAII overprint shifted slightly high and to the left. Errors on Hawaii notes are not at all common, and even a small misalignment on the back would command a premium. Estimating the value on a note like this is difficult in the extreme, but if rarity and desirability are any guide expect this note to reach or even surpass our estimate before the hammer falls.
