With all those fancy features, they make it very easy for an expert to tell the difference between a real bill and a counterfeit. But what about the teenager working down at Ma & Pa's corner store? He's the one who needs to be able to spot a fake. If the teenager can't tell the difference then all those fancy features are a waste.
Chubby, that is so true. At work we have the pens that allows you to know if the bills are fake or not. But now we also have a scanner for them. The show you all the features that are on bills. Like the strip that runs through them. and other features. Pretty crazy these days.
Interesting.... Unfortunately I don't come across many $100 bills in my day to day life, LOL! At least these new ones don't look like Monopoly money like some of the other paper money that they've redone.
I don't know if it's a good idea to show exactly EVERYTHING they've put into the bill - gives crooks all the ammunition they need to see what they need to reproduce!

There's so many different bills floating around now, I don't think most people know what the real ones are supposed to look like!
