Quoth Pixilated View PostSounds to me like she was a typical SC -- I think if she'd been pushing a fake bill she'd have tried harder to get it accepted.I don't have an attitude problem. You have a perception problem.

Just curious, but when they re-positioned the UV thread in the new $10 and $50, was it to put them in easier-to-distinguish locations in case someone just did a quick look for the presence of a thread, rather than check the printing on it? In other words, make it easier to identify a fake $50 printed on a bleached-out $10? If so, why did they move both threads in the same direction, rather than moving one to the left and one to the right?
If they'd kept the thread in the same place on the $10 when they updated it (on the principle that in an ambiguous case, the higher-denomination note should be changed, since it's unlikely someone would print a fake $10 on a bleached-out $50), the positions of the threads would be easier to distinguish between a $10 and a new $50 than what they actually did.Any fool can piss on the floor. It takes a talented SC to shit on the ceiling.

Yeah - I've seen many gas stations, especially smaller, independent ones, that refuse to accept plastic for any transaction under $5. This is usually due to the fees they get charged for running the cards. IIRC, the low end for something like that in the US is around $0.35 + 2.5% of the transaction total and it goes up from there, sometimes steeply."For a musician, the SNES sound engine is like using Crayola Crayons.

I would assume that when you bleach, you bleach older money (before the strips) and make sure the date was pre-strip on the new bill. That way the strip couldn't give it away . Would make the most logical sense.Engaged to the amazing Marmalady. She is my Silver Dragon, shining as bright as the sun. I her Black Dragon (though good honestly), dark as night..fierce and strong.
