I don't think anyone would be here if they had one of those pens handy lol.
No because the pen reacts with the iodine in the paper on the fakes and its probably not too hard just to use cotton paper instead of your classic paper from wood
@@Alex.Solis1 it doesn't react to the material of the paper. It reacts to starch.
The pen isn’t even a sure way to tell tho 😂
Only the lowest quality counterfeits will fail it 💀
@@Alex.Solis1 a lot of cotton paper has starch so it’s not just as simple as buying cotton paper lol
Actually we have a pen at my company and one of my employees took one because it passed the marker test
Great job, Rob!
You missed just one important aspect of the fifty: the blue background to the left of Grant's portrait there are two faint stars, one each to the right and left of the Federal Reserve seal. There is additional microprinting on these stars which says USA Fifty all over the field of the stars in blue ink.
Tonight I was walking my dog and I found three fifty dollar bills on the ground! So I raced home to find a CZcams video to see if they were real and sure enough they are! Check your bills for this additional microprinting that you missed. Otherwise awesome video!
Oh thanks I didn't even realize that one! I'll make sure to include that one if/when I update this video!
@@RobSomeKnowledge i can tell if that 50 dollor bill is fake, becuase i see there is no president on there
So you essentially stole $150 😂
If you examine the blank areas of the Bill closely, you’ll see blue and red fibers as well. This is due to the jean material used in creating the paper. This is true for all US currency. It’s easiest to see when the bills are newer. Just another key security feature!
Oh yes! I completely forgot to add that one in the video!
Does some of the dollar bills from the same year have some inconsistencies with the placement of the face of the president when you shine the light and the lines saying “USA 50” to the right of the presidents by just a couple of inches?
Didn't know of the microtexts interesting. Can barely make it legible without a microscope. also the blacklight security thread is a new one. What I also know is that both seals and the spiderwebbing on the top and bottom boarder also has a texture. Fakes tend to skip out on those. They sometimes get the jacket ones right tho.
Great video! Thanks!
Great video. all except the one micro thingy you missed, I wish I had found your video before even going to the government one. I clicked like and will be checking out the $20 and $100 as well. Thanks a lot!
so if I put the 50 bill under a uv light (nail lamp) will the strip be yellow on both sides or is the top part lighter in color?
The 50 dollar bill strip will glow yellow on both sides. Interestingly, on one side, you can even see the letters on the strip without shining the light through the banknote.
Thanks for this video, needed to confirm my suspicions on a bill at work i thought was fake. It was very fresh and the bills still stuck together, the bill felt a lot thicker than a normal bill and had a weird texture to it and wasnt soft at all. It had no colouring at all, like an old bill but again these were unwrinkled fresh sticking together so that caught my attention. On closer inspection the 50 in the bottom left corner in the front was blurry, like it was low resolution. Looking up in the light at it, there was no security strip or hidden face at all.
Told the guy I didn't want to cause a scene and he can pay for what he was trying to buy if he could provide another form of payment (work somewhere without the pens or protocols to react to these situations).
Would feel dead awful if i turned the guy away and I was wrong lol.
Glad I made the right call, thank you :)
Any bills before 1990 won’t have a strip. But since it was unusually thick and it looked blurry it was probably fake. Bills will never look blurry. That’s usual a result of just photocopying money.
There is micro printing in the blue stars on the front but I don't know what it says
Is the signature of the treasurer the correct current signature? I have a $20 at work that one of my employees just called and said she did the "tests" that I've showed her such as the ridged collar and there were no grooves. She sent me pics and I noticed the signature. My Lumis machine wouldn't take it but there are other reasons for it not to take bills sometimes.
It is a fake. His signature, as of now, is only printed on the $1 bill.
@@amyfilipopoulosnelson2195 the treasurer and Secretary of treasury are on most bills what are you talking about 😂
I have a pen that I use for business! Today, all the bills marked good (yellow gold) but one. It didn't mark a dark brown though. It's a dark yellow. It's weird. It's like the color mark is between good & bad. I came to this video and all the options you went through checked out. Do you know what may have caused this?
Maybe the pen is starting to get old. You do have to replace them every so often. All the pen does is test for starch.
thanks so much for those VALUABLE tips !!!💰
Wow, thanks really informative 👍
I always check the texture of the coats, as real bills all have textures.
According to my manager the pen is only 40% accurate. That's because people will scrape the ink off of real 1 dollar, or 5 dollar bills and repaint them as 100's. That's the 1%, high end counterfeits though.
I got yelled at by a dude a few days ago for checking to see if his money was a counterfeit, as I do with every bill. The reason I checked his dollar is because it had a hole right where the hidden face was. So I held it up to the light to see the hidden face, and to see who it was. It was the correct face for the correct bill. So It was a real bill, but he yelled at me nonetheless.
I make it less obvious now by checking the texture of the coats, but if your bill has a gaping hole right where the hidden face is, I'm gonna check it 😂
High end counterfeits don’t wash $1/$5’s etc. that’s like a drug addict method for someone with a $30 inkjet 😂
they source a paper without starch or make their own paper without starch. They can also use lacquer to prevent the pen from ever reaching the starch (like modern counterfeiter Jeff Turner).
If the paper is thin enough you can use 2 pieces of paper and print a side on each piece. Then on the back of the back you can print a strip and watermark.
If you make your own paper you can 3D print a Benjamin Franklin stencil a couple millimeter thick and do the same for the “USA 100” (or source some pre existing tiny letters) then use adhesive to put it on the mesh of your deckle and mould (paper making device). Then when you make paper it’ll be thinner in those spots thus creating a watermark Benjamin Franklin and watermark security strip.
There’s also ways to beat the iridescent numbers on the bottom right of the bill, getting the security strip to glow the right color under a black light, etc but if you want to learn more about that look up the Jeff Turner interview on Koncrete YT channel. Dude made over a million in 1996 series 100s using an inkjet printer and blank Bible paper.
Usually a really high end counterfeiting ring will also get an offset printing press to get fine quality imagery.
But if you get a really nice digital camera with a good macro lens you can also take a bunch of photos, clean it up in like photoshop/GIMP, assemble it all together, then make really good looking $.
I found a 50$ bill today wasn’t sure if it was real or not so I didn’t wanna take it into the store so this video was very helpful the 50$ bill turned out to be real!
You help me a lot ... thanks
Very nice explanation I wish you success
I have a fifty that is real but they have an extra black line down to the Star on the right. Is that just a mistake by the Treasury?
You're amazing thank you!
What if a 50 dollar bill has a blueprint on it with t66 is a keeper
Didn’t know about the texture but one of the things that is harder to reproduce for counterfeits is the little randomly scattered red and blue fibers throughout the bill. You have to look closely but the surface should have a scattering of those threads on every denomination. It means once again that it is real money paper and likely that it was minted/not bleached but doesn’t guarantee its the correct denomination. As tellers we check just about all of these in quick succession if we suspect its counterfeit... though obviously people aren’t too keen on bringing counterfeit bills to a place that has the most skeptical eyes.
that was good thank you for the vid
How about the 1996 series is same?
Also, when he used the microscope you'll notice the background colors of the bill are created by the repetition of a geometric shape. Each bill denomination uses a diff shape. And the lines are always perfectly parallel and equidistant from eachother
Hi
Thank you! A client paid with a $50 bill and when I was about to spend, it felt funny. It’s also a slight bit smaller than other bills, which is what caught my attention. Maybe it was in washer 🤷🏽♀️. Are they cut smaller than other bills?
Nope all bills should be cut the exact same, of course there are errors here and there, but usually no it shouldn't be smaller. Did it pass all of the tests I show?
Hay would a 50 with the cereal number GF50000200A be worth more
I took a pictures with my cell phone and zoomed in on the collar and down the sides and I could Read it no problem.
Every test turned out perfect except I didn't have the special marker. Thank you so much. Im Canadian and a guy gave me a 50 dollar bill over a year ago. He gave it because he was in a crisis and I helped him out.
I didn't want the money but he pushed it on me. I was paranoid there was something wrong with it. 😂😂 now I know it's fine so I can exchange it at the bank.
Thank you so much.
Not many people I know have a 50 dollar bill.(because they're hard to come across)
Hey man.
Is there a difference in value between blue and white dollars?
What do you mean blue and white dollars?
There was a $50 bill of watermark of a 5 on the right side. Is it fake or is it just a printing error? Please help
$50 bill with $5 watermark? That is not a printing error. It’s a counterfeit. Someone bleached a $5 bill and printed a $50 on top of it
The 8 people who disliked this are counterfeiters for sure
thank you
Thank you
So it's ok to put permanent marker on the bill? It your marking up the bill, what if it's done over and over again?
Yea it is okay
It’s not a permanent marker. It’s a marker with iodine in it. Do not draw on money with a regular markers!!!
I have a 50 bill that the ebt machine didn't accept but it passed all the security you told except uv light and the pen I don't have. Don't know what to think
You don’t have a UV light or you used one and it didn’t react?
@@RobSomeKnowledge I didn't had one
Ahh. Do you still have the bill? If all the other security features look good , I think it’s probably good. Bill acceptors can be picky sometimes especially if a bill is super wrinkly
Or damaged
It's very difficult to differentiate between real with the fake when the cashier has many customers.
Just check for the embedded security strip. Make sure it reads the proper denomination. That’s prob the fastest most effective way
@@RobSomeKnowledge the fastest way is getting use to coloration (low quality photocopy ones fail this a lot) and feeling the texture on the historical figure’s suit.
The magnetic ink on the black work gives it a raised texture.
Why is the top left f a 3?
Can I use my phone camera too? Should work zoom in on it
Depending on the camera and how stable you can hold it , it should work
You gave me memories of getting these from my grandma
Today I got out of the bank and went to my local store to get a visa card.. I wanted about 300 on it.. so I gave the 6 50 dollar bills to the cashier.. she checked them but with the dumb look on her face I was kinda iffy on her next move.. she looked puzzled and re-looked over the 6 bills.. then said she couldn't take them bc she didn't think they were real and said that she was very sorry.. something told me to look this up to see if the "bank" gave me fake 50 dollar bills.. turns out she was just wrong and confused. I'm going to go back and share this video with her to see if she will take the money back.. W video ❤️❤️👍
You’re lucky she didn’t confiscate them and call the police to confirm. Might as well go to a different store.
Will the dollar bills say USA 1? My friend said my dollar bill was fake, even though it's the change I received from a store.
No, $1 bills do not have a security strip embedded in them.
They can’t change $1 bills due to some vending machine lobbying. It’s been the same design forever. It will never have a strip. Your friend is dumb
Valuable Information
Thanks for watching!
Good job bro
Glad to know mi bill is real, thanks bud
Is this 2017 series available in abundance or limited
Abundance
@@RobSomeKnowledge Thank you so much.
No problem!
The 50 has a hidden star pattern on the reverse side of the bill
Dear there's no serial on my 50 dollar Note but all other security things have is it real r fake?
Most likely. What is the year on the bill?
@@RobSomeKnowledge 2013
Hmmm, I’ve never heard that one before, either it is some rare error bill (which I highly doubt missing a serial number would pass any kind of quality assurance check) or it’s fake. Can you possibly upload a video of it to your channel? If so I could take a look
They are so stunning ❤
Damn!
Does real money split aprart like you have a front and a back piece
No
It shouldn’t- the press they use has a ton of pressure!
Gracias
De nada!
Put a link for microscope where in Amazon

Thanks cause I found a 50 dollar bill while it was raining and it looked weird but it’s real thanks to u
Hard to tell if u se e real or not
Thanks for the easy video to figure out if it's legit.
what happens if it’s a clear mark?
How is it clear? Is the marker dried out?
thank u 4 hlpng mi out bro
How's he recording if he's using his phone as a light
lol I have multiple phones, but this video was actually recorded on my Canon EOS M50 Camera
Good 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩👍💯💯💯💯
I was just told by a gas station attendant that my 50 was fake. He was 100% wrong.
Does all $50.00 bills have united states of America on Grants coller
If it’s this newest style, it should
Is it even possible to perfectly counterfeit a bill?
Possible? Yes. Probable? No. If you could somehow source every single material, and piece of equipment used to make currency then you could. And doing all this undetected would probably be a whole different story
If it’s possible to make it then it’s possible to counterfeit it. The North Korean super notes were real close but they accidentally had too much detail in certain spots.
Had an incident with a customer at the job who paid me with a Fake $50 bill. Should’ve checked it right away. Bad on my part. So thanks for this video.
Dang yeah that sucks. Yeah always check it right away! Thanks for watching and commenting!
Dang
On the right corner of his mouth coming from the mustache down to the 10 it says something on there it's micro stitched
Do a ten dollar bill
I have one from 1990-1994
My marker test came back as normal but the atm still won’t take it…
Okay what about the other security features I mentioned… did you check those?
Yeah no portrait for the watermark, and also no USA 50 on the side of the face!
@@RobSomeKnowledge i wish i could show you the bill it definitely does not look like a regular 50

it's brown
A counterfeit hundred is really worth a hundred twenty one dollars; because both real money burns at the same speed as fake money and leather doesn't burn: so under civil rights law a consumer has to accept all bills for 21 percent more than a real bill. Or it would be considered an act of discrimination. But a counterfeit two dollars bill would count for Fourty two pennies on a two dollar bill. Or your brain and spirits would experience a deficiency of ketamine feelings and you'd suffer fear of communication for your needs entrapment ... If you can't define the true meaning of love without friendship...? Okayed
Whatcha smoking cuh 😂
This bill is real are fake because I'm don't understand
This bill is real
@@RobSomeKnowledge i can tell is it real
Got watermark means that ITS real
It needs to be correct watermark. Some people will bleach a $10 bill and print a $50 or $100 on top of it. Will still have a watermark but will not be an authentic bill. That’s why it’s important to pay attention to detail. Also if you’ve ever looked into famous counterfeiters there have been people that have made some pretty realistic looking watermark fakes.
All i do is look for the watermark and feel the collar
Yes sir. Whatever works for you!
Nowadays there are lots of fake bill 😂😂😂
There is Bill Clinton, Bill Gates, Bill Maher, etc!
Which one is better? 😂😂😂😂

as i compared my bill to yours, i don't see a star on yours
Are you talking about a small star right next to the serial number of the bill?
@@RobSomeKnowledge no, a tiny star after#
@@petethetaper Yeah that is called a star note, typically worth more than face value of the bill, depending on what series it is, and some special serial numbers can sell for a good chunk of change
