Well, if you think it might be fake have your bank submit it to the Secret Service for determination.

Yes I can measure small values very well.
I don't think the bill is a fake at all, so there's no point in turning it in.
The ink is attracted to an N52 magnet. The microscope reveals details no different than a normal bill.
It's just a little longer, thicker and weighs more than a normal bill.
I was hoping someone here could suggest any known reasons why or how this could have been made this way and perhaps should have been caught in production but was let out as an error.
I may experiment on a few regular dollars by spraying matte finish Polycrylic, spray starch or adhesive to see if they come out with a similar thickness and weight. But that still doesn't account for being 5mm longer.
