<p>[QUOTE="DaveDolla, post: 2939063, member: 91774"]Twenty dollar dilemma - Is this a failed counterfeit bill? Is it genuine us currency, but worth $20, $200? I don’t want to be arrested for using it and I certainly don’t want to spend it on smokes and find out later it was worth $2,000. </p><p> </p><p>The Dolla Discovery - I found it in a really old box in a photo album also found some weird 1957 one dollar bills w blue stamps so possibly they are all collectors thing? The 1957 ones were so old and beat up so I can’t imagine they are worth anything, and no one smart would ever counterfeit singles, right? But this 20 looks brand new, never used and immediately I was like where’s the top margin? To make sure I wasn’t crazy I went to atm and pulled out $300 in 20s and none look like this. </p><p>Also when I held to a light I saw the bar thing saying USA TWENTY and the ghosted face. It seems odd to have such a High level craftsmanship counterfeit bill, where they messed up the simplest part- cutting it. I held to a light so you can see what I’m talking about for the photos to assist in your analysis. If you need reverse imaging or closer shots let me know! Also if you think the old blue seal ones are worth something LMK. I am clueless when it comes to this kind of stuff. Thank you for your expert analysis! -Dave[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
