That is precisely why the $5 was recently redesigned - to improve the
security of the $100.



Documentation, please.

The BEP replaced the watermark of Abraham Lincoln with the numeral 5 on the
Series 2006 notes, the colourised ones at least. So if you have a couple of
fivers, one say 2001 or 2003, and then one of the colourised 2006's you will
notice the change.
