Are they counterfeiting our new or our old bills? "Supposedly" our new bills with the 'thread' are counterfeit-proof!

$41 million in bogus U.S. dollars

The dollar doesn't have the thread.

Saw a picture of the seized money on the tube.

It was a room full.

That's alot of 1 dollar bills.

There have been reports that there are some counterfeits of the new bills that are so good at imitating many of the new features that they fooled experts (evidently until someone went to enormous efforts to do microscopic examinations of ALL of the new features).
