Malaya & British Borneo 1959 1 Dollar with Security Ink?

Hello - 

Does anyone have thoughts on this note? It is a Malaya & British Borneo 1959 - 1 Dollar - P-8A. Is this one with security ink or something else? It looks like ink as it is only on one side and has a a clear line. BUT I can not find anything out about it. 

Thanks!

It looks like this note has been stained with red colour. Most likely, someone left this note in a red package in their clothes and then took it for a wash. Must be more than one note in the package and that is why only one part is showing a much stronger stain than the reverse. I have seen such notes before (with red stains).  

Thanks for that!

Definitely looks post-production damage to me. The clues? Design of the note is faded (likely from bleach). Its possible the dye, juice, etc spilled on a pair of pants, seeped into the note & the pants were put in the wash.    Areas where the dye seems to be missing could be from a money clip, coin or some other object which protected the note. 

Thanks so much. I was hoping it was something sure rare! 😁 But what you say makes sense to me.

Thanks again!
