1978D $5 Federal Reserve Note Misaligned Back Printing Error. PCGS XF40 PPQ

This fascinating 1978-D $5 Federal Reserve Note featuring a dramatic misaligned back printing error. The obverse presents as a standard-issue note, but flip it over and the story changes. The reverse is clearly out of alignment, creating a striking visual anomaly.

Approximately the final ½ inch of the reverse design is cut off on the right edge and reappears on the left, a textbook and highly collectible printing error. Recognizing the quality and eye appeal of this modern error note, PCGS has graded it Extremely Fine 40 PPQ, preserving crisp paper quality. The note bears the Ortega/Baker signatures, rounding out a sharp and conversation-worthy piece for any error currency or specialty collection.
