New 5 dollar bill with enhanced security features

Today a new five-dollar bill has been launched at a ceremony with the Federal Reserve Board; this new 5-dollar bill has enhanced security features with the aim of protecting our money. At first look you can see that it’s similar to the old one with a portrait of president Abraham Lincoln, but this five-dollar bill will keep ahead of counterfeiters with its new security and takes only a few seconds to check it’s genuine.

These improvements include micro printing with words so small that they are hard to replicate, it glows blue when held under an ultraviolet light and watermarks have been increased to two.
