Default Got A Counterfeit At The Bank

I would suggest the reason for the almost full redesign of the $5 bill was to make
it itself less duplicable, rather than to prevent them from being used to create
fake $100 bills out of.


Are you sure? If you were going to counterfeit a bill would you do a $5 or a $100?



Ask Francis Leroy Henning.

$5 bills pass without much scrutiny. I've never seen a store clerk use the detector
pen on anything less than a $20 bill.
