The 1981 Series $20 Federal Reserve Note belongs to the modern small-size currency era of the United States. Like other Federal Reserve Notes, it was issued as part of the nation’s everyday paper money system and features the portrait of Andrew Jackson, the seventh President of the United States. The reverse design showcases the White House, one of the most recognizable symbols of American government.

A Gutter Fold Error occurs when a fold is present in the paper before the printing process is completed. The folded section prevents ink from properly reaching part of the note, creating a distinctive blank or distorted area once the paper is unfolded. These errors are highly collectible because they represent an unusual mistake during the complex multi-stage banknote production process.
