    I have a U.S. $100.bill with the impression "DOLARES EL PAISA".Measures about 7/16",round,right side between the seal and margin on the white background,centered top to bottom.Impressed from the back.Has a dollar "$" in the center.Came across it when looking over some of my notes with a magnifying glass.Hard to see but nicely impressed.Any ideas why this note would have this impression?I am thinking some South American country using the U.S. Dollar as currency did this.:confused:

    Google translation "individual dollars"? Paisa is individual in Filipino and dolares is dollars in Spanish and Portuguese. No clue.

    El dolares paisa

    I found this online:

    The Paisa or Paisas in "plural" are people who inhabit a region over the northwest Colombia in the Andes.

    EL and Dolares are both spanish.
