Need to Know? Modern U.S. currency, regardless of denomination, is 2.61 inches wide, 6.14 inches long, and 0.0043 inches thick. A single bill weighs about one gram and costs approximately 4.2 cents for the Bureau of Engraving and Printing to produce. Micro-printing and security threads were introduced in the 1991 currency series. Another series started in 1996 with the $100 note, adding the following changes:

  • A larger portrait, moved off-center to create more space to incorporate a watermark.
  • The watermark to the right of the portrait depicting the same historical figure as the portrait. The watermark can be seen only when held up to the light.
  • A security thread that will glow red when exposed to ultraviolet light in a dark environment. The thread is in a unique position on each denomination.
  • Color-shifting ink that changes from green to black when viewed from different angles. This feature appears in the numeral on the lower right-hand corner of the bill front.
  • Micro-printing in the numeral in the note's lower left-hand corner and on Benjamin Franklin's coat.
  • Concentric fine-line printing in the background of the portrait and on the back of the note. This type of printing is difficult to copy well.
  • The value of the currency written in 14pt Arial font on the back for those with sight disabilities.
  • Other features for machine authentication and processing of the currency.
