The Bureau of Engraving web site did not mention the larger bill, but not being in circulation is why it was not listed in the collectors page.

I will bite on the $5 bill, the one in my wallet does not have the states listed, which series or is the print to small for my bifocals? /forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif

From the U.S. Treasury's web page--

"The vignette on the reverse of the five-dollar bill depicts the Lincoln Memorial. You may be aware that, engraved on that Memorial are the names of the 48 states in 1922, which was the year the Memorial was dedicated. There are engravings of 26 State names on front of the building, which appears on the note vignette. As a result, only 26 of the States appear on the note.

The upper frieze of the Memorial bears the States of Arkansas, Michigan, Florida, Texas, Iowa, Wisconsin, California, Minnesota, Oregon, Kansas, West Virginia, Nevada, Nebraska, Colorado, and North Dakota. The lower Frieze lists the States of Delaware, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Georgia, Connecticut, Massachusetts, Maryland, Virginia, and New York. In addition, the engravings show the abbreviated names "Hampshire" (for New Hampshire) and "Carolina" (for South Carolina). We have no information why the prefixes for these states were not used."

I was looking in the "World book encylopedia" and it has a good illustration of all the US paper currency.I learned all about this years ago on a TV show,can you tell me who's picture is on the $10,000 dollar bill ?(he was not a president but I believe he served under Abe Lincoln)

</font><font color="blue" class="small">( <font color="blue"> The names of all 50 states run along the top of the Lincoln Memorial, which is pictured on the back of the five dollar bill. </font> )</font>
The 50 states are printed on the back of your $5.00 bill,you need a magnifying glass to see/read them.

I think it may be illegal to reproduce any US currency in any form, even if it's not possible to spend it.

I took off the images of the currency and replaced them with links to the pages where I found them. I don't want to go to the federal pen and share a cell with someone named Bubba. (No offense there, Bubba) /forums/images/graemlins/crazy.gif /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

They had a good one in Dayton the other day. Some young kid robbed someone, took off in his car, then the police chased him until he crashed his car. Then he got out of the car and took off running until his pants which were just barely hanging on his butt, fell down around his knees and tripped him up. I was laughing so hard I didn't catch all the details. /forums/images/graemlins/laugh.gif /forums/images/graemlins/laugh.gif /forums/images/graemlins/laugh.gif
