I found a one dallar bill in which the front (george washington side) is printed on the back also. So basically the front is normal but the back has both the U.S. Seal and ,lightly, like a water mark, there is a full image of the front printed over top. i hope i used the right "terminology" this time. I already checked ebay, and i cant find anything like it online. So help me please!

It does sound like you have an error dollar bill. The best thing to do is to take it to a coin show where the will be many dealers at one time. Then you can get three or four opinions at one time.
Dollar bills with errors do have a premium on their value but it is difficult to say without seeing how dramatic the error is and what the condition of the note is.
If the note is CU (for Crisp Uncirculated) meaning it has never had a chance to circulate, has no signs of wear or tear, no folds and no dirt, it could be worth substantially more.
The other factor is how clear the error printing is on the reverse of the note. It is impossible to say what it is worth.
You can search and check the web-sites of:
Lyn Knight Currency Auctions
Heritage Coin Auctions
Superior Coin Auctions
Stack's Auctions
The first two might have some good listings for error notes.
If you cannot get any information at a coin show, come back and post your city and I can help you locate when and where there will be a coin show. It is usually a better alternative then going to a single coin shop.

Hi:
Geniune misprints are usually worth a lot. Be careful, and don't sell it to anyone yet, because some dealers may offer you something, but that's a good indication it may be worth much more. Keep it until you find out as much as you can, and then possibly find a good sale for it, if that's what you're after. Nice find, and good luck with this!

You have an error note. It has to be authenticated and you can try Denly's of Boston. He is a well know professional of the paper currency field. You will have to send a scan or photo for him to help. Email him at denlys@aol.com, there are others but he is an honest man and well known by currency collectors.

I bet it's worth a LOT of $$$ if it's real. Stay away from ebay with that. Go to a US mint location and ask them. Don't give it to them.
