San Jose, Costa Rica, Banco Central, 5 colones, 8-5-1972, serial D8312151, cutting error with extra tab, PCGS AU 53 PPQ. SCWPM-236b. A fold through the uncut sheet of notes prior to cutting gifted this note with an extra tab of paper in the upper left corner. This noticeable error led to the note being pulled from circulation shortly after being issued, resulting in light handling and protecting the original paper quality. There's also a secondary error in the design itself - the credited painter's name on the back is T. Villa when it should have been J. Villa; this error was corrected in 1973. Pedigreed to the Tamarindo Collection of Costa Rican Error Coins and Paper Money.
($200-300)
