Unfortunately, I'm sure there will be someone that will figure out how to counterfeit these new $50 bills. However, I do like the design as well!

Let's get some "truth-in-advertising" into the US Mint...plaster Ted Kennedy's mug on the obverse side, and a sinking car on the other. Who knows...maybe John Kerry is already thinking about it.

I love the design...very unique and nice. But I'm sure someone will create a counterfeit version. :(

That is why after about 10 years, they have to take large bills and re-design them. I believe I heard that from somewhere. :?:
