Title: I found a strange Polymerbit on Ebay Post by: Xprim777 on October 27, 2017, 01:10:27 PM Hi,
I found a Polymerbit 1/10 ETH on ebay before the test edition was released on the website. These are the two 1/10 ETH we can find on the Polymerbit website https://i.imgur.com/at9HsQ4.jpg?1 We can see that the final edition (numbered) is a little bit more lighter than the test edition (unumbered). Also if you look closely on the vertical line before "BANK OF POLYMERBIT", you can see "Bitcoin 2017 document" on the final edition, and "Ethereum 2017 document" on the test edition. And this is the Ebay Polymerbit I received https://i.imgur.com/cZjHBV6.jpg It is unumbered, and a lot lighter than the test edition. Also there is "Bitcoin 2017 document" on the vertical line, like on the final edition. This Polymerbit came without hologram, it was shipped from UK. Paper quality is the same. Is it a polymerbit error ? Thanks Title: Re: I found a strange Polymerbit on Ebay Post by: Hox on October 27, 2017, 11:42:52 PM The first print of these notes did have "Bitcoin 2017 document" printed vertically. There are only around 30 of these notes that were printed before they discovered and fixed it.

The note may have faded because of how it was displayed previously, probably in direct sunlight for long periods. Is the back the same? Side note, but I don't think it's supposed to say bitcoin on the final version of this note :o Title: Re: I found a strange Polymerbit on Ebay Post by: kryptopath on October 27, 2017, 11:54:19 PM [quote author=Xprim777 link=topic=2324613.msg23622414#msg23622414

Side note, but I don't think it's supposed to say bitcoin on the final version of this note :o I ordered two of these ebay notes and both are a lot lighter. The back is the same on the three different polymerbit, and same color. Yep it's weird that there is ethereum document on the test, and bitcoin document on the final edition.

Yes, lighter than the two polymerbit on the website.

Ah, no I was confused I meant physically lighter, but apparently it's a lighter color print :P Title: Re: I found a strange Polymerbit on Ebay Post by: polymerbit on October 28, 2017, 08:33:10 AM :o
Looks like the wrong notes were sent out. We tend to test notes quite a bit until we think we have something you’d enjoy to own...That includes seeing how the final edition may look. That bitcoin document error is now well known and we shredded a large quantity of them. But it appears this guy got some pre production ones.

So the mistake must be on our end. Title: Re: I found a strange Polymerbit on Ebay Post by: greenplastic on October 28, 2017, 03:17:37 PM Hi,
