| Subject: 'Lipstick on a statist pig:' Ben Franklin gets a makeover: New and improved $100 bill coming in October to ATM near you Wed Apr 24, 2013 11:56 pm | |
| The Federal Reserve announced Wednesday that it will begin circulating a $100 bill redesigned with high-tech security features this fall, more than two years after its initial target.
The Fed has set a target date of October 8. The revamped note incorporates added security features, such as a blue, 3-D security ribbon and a disappearing Liberty Bell in an inkwell that switches color from copper to green when tilted.
The features are designed to thwart counterfeiters. The new notes, which cost slightly more to produce, also boast a large '100' that shifts colors as the viewing angle is tilted.
