               A scarce error on a Britannia type 10 Shilling note. The top right hand

               serial number reads N05Z 930595

               The metal thread, which should be "windowed" runs
               in a bowed line on the outside of the paper.

               The metal thread is in the wrong position and on the outside of the
               paper - ie not windowed.
