Counterfeit 1981 50 dollar bill.

Color shifting ink tilt the bill to see if the numeral 50 in the lower right corner on the front of the bill changes colors from copper to green. The fist thing to look for is the security strip. Don t be fooled you can buy a money detector pen on my website at this link. If a 1 2 5 10 20 bill series 1963 and after has the clause or if those same denominations prior to series 1963 do not have the clause then the bill is counterfeit.

The us did print 10 000 dollar bills. You can only see it when a light source is behind the bill. The 50 note includes an embedded security thread that glows yellow when illuminated by uv light. The color originally appeared to change from green to black but it goes from copper to green in recent redesigns of the bills.

In addition the note includes a color shifting numeral 50 in the lower right corner of the note. Beginning with series 1963 and series 1963a for the 50 and 100 bills the clause was removed completely. The color shift is more dramatic in the redesigned currency making it even easier for people to check their money. 5 and lower bills do not yet have this feature.

But with this particular bill be worth. Below are the features to look for when taking these bills. The 50 dollar bill is designed with two main features to look for in avoiding counterfeit bills. When held to light a portrait watermark of president grant is visible from both sides of the note.

Since these are of a higher denomination and more scarce than 1 2 5 10 and 20 dollar bills there is a higher chance that it is a counterfeit bill. O hold the bill up to a light to check for a watermark. Security features can help you to tell if a 50 dollar bill is fake or real. A watermark bearing the image of the person whose portrait is on the bill can be found on all 10 20 50 and 100 bills series 1996 and later and on 5 bills series 1999 and later.

To view this hold your bill up to a light and the security strip will appear.
