You're referring to the new $100 bill!

The United States Treasury Department introduced a new $100 bill on October 8, 2013, featuring advanced security features to prevent counterfeiting. Here are some of the notable changes:

  1. 3D Security Ribbon: A woven strip that runs along the left side of the bill, featuring images of 100s and Liberty Bells that shift and change as you tilt the bill.
  2. Bell in the Inkwell: A color-shifting Liberty Bell that appears to move from copper to green as you tilt the bill.
  3. Enhanced Security Thread: A thin strip that glows pink when held under UV light, featuring the words "USA 100" and a Liberty Bell.
  4. Color-Shifting 100: The numeral "100" in the lower right corner of the bill changes from copper to green when tilted.
  5. Raised Printing: The words "United States of America" and the Treasury Department seal are raised to the touch, giving the bill a more tactile feel.
  6. Microprinting: Tiny text is woven throughout the design, including the phrase "The United States of America" and the words "USA 100" in the border.

These advanced security features make it more difficult for counterfeiters to produce fake $100 bills, while also providing a more secure and reliable way for consumers to verify the authenticity of their currency.
