Final moments of the auction where a last-second bid secured the rare duplicated serial number error note pair for $1,894, plus buyer’s premium.

With just nine seconds remaining in Sunday’s auction, a final bid secured the winning price of $1,894. In addition to the hammer price, the buyer is responsible for a $236.75 buyer’s premium, bringing the total purchase amount to $2,130.75.

This particular pair features the duplicated serial number 00141128, which is currently the lowest known serial number ever confirmed and auctioned as a matched error pair. The production anomaly that led to the duplication occurred across three separate print runs, with the first run spanning serial numbers 00000001 to 00250000. As the earliest and oldest of the three runs, it is uncertain how many notes from this batch remain in circulation today.
