$5 1974 FRN PMG 64 EPQ Inverted Overprint. $5 1974 FRN s/n H19854550B graded PMG 64 EPQ. This is a Type I Inverted Overprint and is as fresh as the day it was printed. The $5 denomination has historically been printed in much smaller quantities than the $1, $20 and $100 denominations. (See chart above.). Estimated Value $800 - 1,200
There is a relatively small premium for the $5 denomination in the industry standard guidebook to United States Paper Money Errors (by Frederick J. Bart). We would suggest that due to the fact that the BEP prints only about 1/4 the amount of $5 notes vs. $1 notes on average over the past decade, that the $5 denomination should bring more than it often does.
