Subject: More interesting quotes on Nexgen currency.
Posted by Eric on March 11, 2003 at 10:05 AM:

The $20, $50 and $100 notes will each feature different, subtle colors to distinguish their values, though they will remain predominantly green, said Federal Reserve spokeswoman Rose Pianalto. Colors have been chosen for the $20 note, she said -- though she declined to name them.

"This is the first time the United States has used color to differentiate between denominations, something other countries have been doing for decades," said Gene Hessler, author of several books on engraving and currency.

The notes also will feature some design changes to aid the visually impaired and enhance security. More details about the redesign will be announced by spring."

The two things that stick out to me is the term 'colors' instead of color. That is the second time I've seen a quote that makes me beleive there will be more than one color involved in the new designs.

This is also the first time I've heard about the design changes to aid the visually impaired.

Looking forward to March 27th! :-)
