I Wonder If This More Rare Than That Baseball Card With Someone Grabbing Their Crotch On It
If you’ve ever collected anything like stamps, baseball cards, or even currency, you know the value of finding something with an error on it, a mistake of some kind, or sometimes there’s even hidden words like this rare banknote that has the word “sex” hidden by the head of the Queen.
Printed at some point between 1968 and 1973 this 50 Rupee note from the Seychelles was recently sold at auction for £136 (around $210 bucks) along with a couple other rare coins and currencies. The theory behind why the word “sex” appears written out near the Queen’s head is that some pro-independence printers added the word as a protest because the island wanted to be free of British rule. There are a few other bank notes out there from around the same time with the word “scum” hidden in them. Now, if you’ve been staring at the bank note, trying to find the hidden word it you need to tilt your head to side and look at the palm trees. I’m going to be honest and fully admit that I don’t see it. And believe me, I wanted to see it. I zoomed in, I zoomed out, tilted my head to the left, titled my head to the right, and I still don’t see it.
Of course it would be one of those things that you need a magnifying glass to see, but if you see it clearly, then you are a better man or woman than me. If you do see it, any details on where specifically to look would be much appreciated.
