Currency help! Is this $2 bill fake?
The currency forum seems to be a little slow. If posting this offends too many members, I will delete the post. So here goes. I have about 3 dz $2 bills and I was looking thru them this evening. I have one that is a little strange. I've never seen one that started with 3 letters for the serial number and not a letter on… -

The number fonts are different also comparing the 3, 2, 1 & 8. -

It appears to be a note made for cashiers to detect fakes. Not a real US note in my opinion. I once saw a set for sale on ebay, $1, 2, 5, 10, 20, 50 and 100.....was tempted to buy but did not. bob:) -

This is funny. My wife use to be an Assett Protection Manager about 10 yrs ago with walmart. She use to look for coins and such for me when tellers would bring cash to her office. I showed her this $2 bill last night and she didn’t know it was fake either. She said most likely a cashier took it in and my wife just replaced… -
Re: Currency help! Is this $2 bill fake?
The pens are not fool proof. You should learn how to detect a counterfeit with your eyes and education rather than relying on someone or something to tell you. You have already learned this lesson the hard way once, do you need to learn it again? I can't tell you the exact method used but people will take a $5 and wash or… -

Re: Currency help! Is this $2 bill fake?
These notes are, ostensibly, used in China for training the bank tellers that handle the foreign exchange desk. You obviously don't want to use real foreign hard cash for training purposes, as trainees might be tempted to steal them, and hide the theft under mis-counting. So the training notes are designed to resemble the…
