<p>[QUOTE=&quot;NOS, post: 1360206, member: 2098&quot;]It wouldn&#039;t be a tough call for me. I wouldn&#039;t waste a postage stamp to mail it in to the SS or the gas to drive to and turn in a fake <i>one</i> dollar bill to a bank. I am under no obligation to do so and why should I bother? Just to have it taken without reimbursement? I don&#039;t think so. It is not like finding an unregistered machine gun in your grandfathers attic, this is comparing an apple to a gigantic pumpkin. This is not North Korea or Iran, this is the United States. You can show off a counterfeit as much as you want, you just can&#039;t attempt to spend it. I was in Miami earlier this month and I went to a shoe shop and the owner had a counterfeit $20 bill hanging up for everyone to see. Does this make him a moron as well?</p><p><br /></p><p>I believe Travis has the experience and knowledge to determine whether his dollar bill is legitimate or not and may do a better job at determining authenticity better than most people who work at a bank can, anyways. There was a posting on the wheresgeorge forum two months ago where someone inquired about a questionable $100 bill that they had. The person brought it to a bank to get it checked and they were told it was authentic. It turned out to be fake! What gave it away was that the plate numbers and serial prefix letters were all off. Amatuers on a currency tracking website were able to determine it was fake by looking at a black and white scan but paid bank employees were not by looking at the note in person.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
