This error could sell for $100 to $200 depending on the bill's condition and how far apart the 2 numbers are.
It's called a "stuck counter" error. There are two counters that print the serial numbers. They're supposed to stay in sync but once in a while one will stick or skip, so the numbers are no longer identical. It's an easy error to miss.
Bills with this error can sell for anywhere from $100 to $200 depending on their condition and how far out of sync the two numbers are. Mismatched serial numbers can occur when one of the counters that prints the numbers gets stuck and doesn't keep in sync with the other one.

The serial numbers on small-size US $1 silver certificates are in the same place as the serial numbers on modern $1 bills - the lower left and upper right corners of the open area on the bill's face. Serial numbers on $1 and $2 bills have 10 characters - a letter, 8 digits, and another letter. $5 and higher denominations have 11 characters, with 2 letters at the start of the serial number.
