<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Numbers, post: 808023, member: 11668&quot;]There is!&nbsp; <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie6" alt=":cool:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />&nbsp; The first Series 2009 $20&#039;s <a href="http://www.moneyfactory.gov/images/MPR_December2009.pdf" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.moneyfactory.gov/images/MPR_December2009.pdf" rel="nofollow">were printed in December</a>.&nbsp; And they got into circulation *very* quickly, with reports coming in from Long Island before the end of 2009 even....&nbsp; Of course, it&#039;ll take months for them to spread across the whole country.&nbsp; <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie3" alt=":(" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>With the Treasurer being sworn in in August, the timing is pretty close to what we&#039;d expect: three months or so to get the new signature engraved and new master plates prepared, and then a transition in which each denomination in turn switches over to the new series, at a rate of one every month or two.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>So most likely we&#039;ll see one additional denomination of Series 2009 printed in February, with others following over the course of the next half-year or so.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>By the way, contrary to what I posted way back up in this thread, the BEP is now planning to print some $5&#039;s and $10&#039;s in the 2010 fiscal year, in addition to the $1&#039;s, $20&#039;s, and $100&#039;s that had been scheduled.&nbsp; (The $5&#039;s were delayed from FY2009, since the BEP ran behind schedule due to delays in installing and shaking down more new presses; the $10&#039;s were moved up from FY2011, since the Fed has been finding that the $10&#039;s in circulation are wearing out faster than expected.)&nbsp; So we&#039;ll likely see all five of these denominations printed as Series 2009 in the relatively near future.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>The $50 isn&#039;t scheduled to be printed again until FY2011 (begins in October 2010), and the $2 isn&#039;t scheduled to come up until at least FY2012 (begins in October 2011).&nbsp; Whether those are Series 2009 will depend on whether the Rios-Geithner signatures are still current by the time they come out: If there&#039;s another signature change in the meanwhile, these denominations could skip Series 2009 entirely.&nbsp; But if the signatures are still Rios-Geithner, the notes will still be Series 2009, even if they don&#039;t go to press until 2012 or later.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
