NEW $5 BILL TO RECEIVE HIGH-TECH ROLLOUT

[MunkyMan95]

The new design for the $5 bill will be unveiled to the world in an Internet broadcast on Sept. 20, the Bureau of Engraving and Printing said yesterday. The government is calling the occasion a "Wi-5" event. The new $5 bill will have changes similar to those of redesigned larger-denomination notes. Color will be added to the $5 bill and the images of Abraham Lincoln and the Lincoln Memorial are expected to be updated. While the new design will be shown on the bureau's Web site next month, the actual bill won't go into circulation until early 2008. It will be followed by a new $100 bill. Read more.

Let's hope instead they just axe the $1 bill instead ...

 

But realistically, it's worth so little that there's a diminishing return in trying to counterfeit it.
