The counterfeit pens are a joke. The Secret Service has stated quality counterfeits are often sprayed with chemicals to react as being genuine...
Every note I've ever seen that's been altered to have an orange back like the one in the OP's post has dated to around 1969. I may have previously...
This is true but the difference with the note by stoicfire is that it's a genuine error that made it out of the BEP. Were it made from an uncut...
Oh my, this is very common by scammers (or wannabe scammers) with red seal $2 notes. I haven't heard of this being done on a $100 red seal before,...

Well, someone involved in law enforcement told that to me. They may have been mistaken or were referring to something along the lines of a minimum...
I'm not sure how true this is but I've heard at some jails in California inmates are allowed to have cell phones. Supposedly, one or more inmates...
