Title: Counterfeits Post by: rggoodie on December 21, 2008, 09:12:10 PM With the economy of the world being what it is counterfeit banknotes are abundant
I just picked up a US $20 and a US$ 100 form local merchants. Has anyone else run into any of these? Title: Re: Counterfeits Post by: CoinCrusader42 on December 22, 2008, 10:03:34 AM Richard,
Is there any easy way to spot a counterfeit? :) :) :) :) Title: Re: Counterfeits Post by: rggoodie on December 22, 2008, 10:52:35 AM On the later (current ) American banknotes the ink is magnetic and if you hold any of the new notes up to the light or use a UV light you can read the denomination on the security thread
This is the fastest way. If you want to look under magnification, then I could list a half dozen ways on each note. Title: Re: Counterfeits Post by: Eringobraugh on February 13, 2009, 01:25:42 AM Are you going to turn them in to the secret service????
