<p>[QUOTE="Drago the Wolf, post: 1223060, member: 22476"]While I wouldn't mind going back to horseblankets, it IS in fact doable for that size font in the current size.

Same sized bill as the old style, same font as the new and current $100 bill, and the low-vision numeral would be placed on its side, like the low-vision gold 100 on the new $100 bills, only the numbers on the $1,000 bills would either be squeezed a bit tighter together and more oblong, or just made a bit smaller (but not by much, and people with low vision could still tell it was a $1,000 bill) the only huge difference I see in the $1,000 bill's low-vision numeral, is that it is proposed to be multi-colored with a copper numeral 1 and comma, two golden middle zeros, and one silver top or last zero. Even though the Treasury has stated that color is not the greatest counterfeit deterence, it does help, and a multi-colored $1,000 bill with a multi-colored low-vision numeral, should be at least a descent challenge to would-be counterfeiters.
