[QUOTE="willieboyd2, post: 4872067, member: 4910"]The 1955 film "Man with the Golden Arm" is about a former drug addict, played by Frank Sinatra, who tries to reform his life. He works as a poker dealer and there are scenes of two poker games showing coins and US bills on the table. The coins are real United States coins and I believe that the bills are real United States currency notes. [IMG]http://www.brianrxm.com/posts/post_movie_manwithgoldenarm_01.jpg[/IMG] 1. First poker game On the table are $5 bills, lots of quarters (25 cent coins), and at least one half dollar. The quarters above the $5 bills are of the Washington type obverse minted since 1932. [IMG]http://www.brianrxm.com/posts/post_movie_manwithgoldenarm_02.jpg[/IMG] 2. First poker game On the table is a pile of $1 bills, some half dollars, and some quarters. The half dollar reverse on the $1 bill appears to be of the Franklin type bell reverse minted since 1948. [IMG]http://www.brianrxm.com/posts/post_movie_manwithgoldenarm_03.jpg[/IMG] 3. Second poker game On the table is a pile of bills, they are $20 bills (a few), $50 bills, and $100 bills. There was a US Treasury Department regulation which prohibited motion pictures from showing real money which was repealed in 1960. What do you think - real or fake? :)[/QUOTE]
