The Federal Reserve Board on Wednesday announced that the redesigned $100 note will begin circulating on October 8, 2013. This note, which incorporates new security features such as a blue, 3-D security ribbon, will be easier for the public to authenticate but more difficult for counterfeiters to replicate.
The new design for the $100 note was unveiled in 2010, but its introduction was postponed following an unexpected production delay. To ensure a smooth transition to the redesigned note when it begins circulating in October, the U.S. Currency Education Program is reaching out to businesses and consumers around the world to raise awareness about the new design and inform them about how to use its security features. More information about the new design $100 note, as well as training and educational materials, can be found at www.newmoney.gov.

The U.S. Secret Service estimates that North Korea has produced $45 million in superdollars since 1989,,
Obama laughs at 45 Million over 25 years. He pays almost that much for his hawaiian house.
All counterfeiting combined, as a risk to the value if ourcurrency, is a silly joke when compared to the trillions Obama creates out of thin air.
The only counterfeit worth discussing at all is from the Fed and Obama. It’s almost comical to watch them descend like a nuclear bomb on some poor SOB who tries to make a few bills with a color printer.
Wow... that is ugly.
No, leave Jefferson on the $10, replace Jackson on the $20 with Reagan.
Does it have a big picture of Obama on the front?
No, do not replace Jackson.
Perfect time to declare all old 100’s null and void if not turned into a bank. This would break the narcotic trade real good.
looks very euro.
how about data counterfiters?
a few ones and zeroes and presto instant fake money.
no paper.
no security marks.
to big to fail fakes.
only the rubes end up with the hard cash.
for the record, it is Hamilton on the ten dollar bill.
Over the past year while at banks and commercial establishments I have asked the clerks about the identity of the person on the ten dollar bill. I estimate that no more than one in twenty could do so.
And the bank personnel handle those bills every day! Amazing.
Jefferson on the $10 bill?
Right O, it’s Hamilton. Still, it’s Jackson (whose banking policy should be abhorrent to conservatives, and whose treatment of the Five Civilized Tribes should be abhorrent to all civilized people) who should get the heave-ho to put Reagan on a bill.
So, do ya think Karzai already received his crate of the $100 bills?
