In Greater Detail by Lynn Towns

This photo shows some of the fine detail and one of the many security features of the new United States twenty dollar bill. The printing is so small it is difficult to even notice unless it is magnified. Notice that the "U" in United States looks like a "W", which I assume is also done for security reasons.

great choice! i used to deal with security papers... the new 20 is really 'feit proof. that small printing is called "microprinting" and cannot be reproduced by copiers / scanners. notice all the fiber in the paper, too! you also captured the green tint really nicely. well done! -- andy
