This is an interesting webpage:

http://lunaticg.blogspot.com/2012/0...r-bills.html

Some are crude, others extremely well executed. I'm a bit less nonchalant than this blogger about the practice in general, but there is nevertheless an undeniable chuckle factor with many of these.

I wonder if you taped a bill to a sheet of paper and then ran it through a printer if your could achieve a computer generated graphic on a note?


Anyways, I find it amazing they were able to turn "Ten Dollars" into "Nice Buns", lol.

@Lucky - that link is only to one particular note, not the blog. The Princess Leia one is great and I'd like to see the others.

Nice buns, indeed.

Sorry for the foul-up. The link posted above is now the correct one for the entire blog.

Just for the sake of the continuity of the thread, here's the particulr note I had originally accidentally posted a link to upon which everybody was commenting:

Altered-US-Notes---Your-Take?-Link-Fixed-+-2-New-Links

Here's additional links where more of the James Charles modified bills can be viewed:

I've seen these before on a different forum.

I think they are interesting and If I found one, I would definitely keep it.

Thanks for fixing the link, LC. Those are great, kind of like currency hobo nickels. Like Steve, I'd keep ones of the caliber on your link, especially the Mr. T $50.
