Old Hundred Dollar Bills....
A young cashier stopped Christmas progress yesterday.
She held the bill up to the light and there was no metal strip, and no watermark. If she would have had an alarm button I'm sure she would have set it off.
A bunch of us old timers tried to explain to her that those were relatively new inventions, and older bills had none of that, and there are still MILLIONS of them in circulation. She would have none of it, and called for help sure that she had a counterfeiter. And he was going down...
Of course, nothing happened except the line was delayed and progress stopped until she was educated. Again.
You would think this would be protocol for someone handling money...
