Now the Fed will get 0.12 cents instead of 0.07 to make them. By the way, the nickel is not at 0.10/3 cents each.

I see they have a Libertarian on the front. Kind of ironic don't ya think?

Wouldn't it be better served (at least more honest) if this guy was on the front of the 100 dollar bill?

Doesn't look bad now, wait until it will only buy a cup of coffee in the near future. Then it will look bad.

And it'll be shitty coffee.

The new hundred as lots of anti-counterfeit features. But I have a question:

Why wouldn't a counterfeiter simply counterfeit the old hundreds?

Because they are going to be phased out.

I had a "original" 100 bill and when i prrsented to the clerk she looked at it like she saw a alien.

Present 100 will garner the same scorn in due time.

Yes, that seems a likely scenario. Though I view that as a big deal; when was the last time that previous versions of a widely circulate U.S. currency was phased out? I don't recall any.

But, yes, this is a likely direction. Watch for FRNs to eventually have expiration dates of some kind. This will discourage hoarding. I believe Zimbabwe began putting expiration dates on their fiat currency.

Out today.
Here is a list of all the extra cool features.

The Gotthamist is still pretty mainstream, so I had a smile on my lips when I found this on its site... I didnt know that taxpayers also had to pay for the "print job"... That's greed at its worse nefarious level ever. It costs central bankers nothing to hang world citizens, not even 1 penny :(




Here's The New $100 Bill And Its HIDDEN MEANINGS

CBS News reports that each bill costs around 4 cents more to produce than the old ones, costing taxpayers an extra $100 million a year to produce.

Media outlets are calling the color "copper," but don't be fooled—isn't it INTERESTING that all this gold appears on a new bill right when the federal government is secretly poised to return to the gold standard? And that the bill features an excerpt from the Declaration of Independence about "the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government"? Let one of those self-described "Conspiracy Nuts" explain the new note's hidden meaning:

The new $100's were going to be released on Feb 10, 2011 but the Federal Reserve announced a "delay due to production problems". Why wait so long? In this video it sure looks like they are in full production already...

Oh, did you notice that the bill in all the sample photos was printed in "SERIES 2009"? I believe that the new $100's are ready to go and HAVE BEEN READY SINCE THE ONSET OF THE CREDIT CRISIS! They were waiting for the crash and the return to a gold standard. With this announcement they might as well say ...WE ARE READY TO COLLAPSE THE SYSTEM!!

So how much do you suppose the new bills will each be worth? For some, much more than $100.

Depending on their serial numbers, their value to currency-collectors could go as high as $15,000 each, according to the Boston Globe.

The Globe explains that collectors view certain 8-digit serial numbers as "fancier" (meaning more rare, and thus more collectible) than others. The fanciest numbers, according to collectors, include ones exceptionally low: A new $100 bill with the serial number 00000001, for example, might fetch up to $15,000.
