Is this what they mean when they say our currency is shrinking?

Three of these came with the large collection I just bought.

I have a $2.00 bill that is supposedly a real one that has been shrunk, think I have a $1.00 somewhere too.

Just think how big a $20 gold piece would be if it where meant to circulate at face value

It would get lost in your pocket lint

A new note, when crumpled repeatedly and rolled vigourously in your hands, will shrink to less than 2/3'rds it's size. It can be restored. Cheers, RickO

I hope your horse is not getting cold.

Could you elaborate on that?

Take a new note, crumple/crush it in your hands.. roll it around in your hands, open it gently and do it all over again. The more you do it.. the smaller it will get .... to a point. When you are ready (two or three exercises) smooth it out .. gently .. compare it to a regular bill... it will be considerably smaller. Cheers, RickO

That's not what this note is... It was shrunk by some means other than that.
