<p>[QUOTE="Forkeh, post: 1239825, member: 31745"]Beyond the fact that tellers should be aware of all denominations of legal tender, the whole concept of a counterfeit detector is ridiculous. Didn't we used to call that eyes? I can tell a fake bill as good as any machine (I'm not talking about the rare silver certificates or anything). It's easy. Newer bills? Watermark, security strip, microprinting. Older bills? security strip (unless it's even older than that), microprinting, check for clean lines on the boarder. I'll tell you what my first clue that a bill is fake is. I work in a food joint. I KNOW what U.S. currency should feel like; 9 times out of 10, if it feels wrong, it is wrong. I've never needed a diagram to tell. </p><p><br /></p><p>But then again, I suppose I'd rather tellers not know what Walkers, Franklins, and ASEs are :devil:[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
