When the new counterfeit-resistant $100 bill was introduced last week I lamented how ugly our money had become. Today I found even more reason to be discouraged: I see what should have been .
Designer Michael Tyznik offers an alternative design that is as beautiful as the real bill is homely.
The braille on the holographic strip is a nice touch but my favorite feature is the quote from the Bill of Rights on the back:
The Bill of Rights is carried over into the other conceptual designs for the $5, $10, $20, and $200(!) bills that Tyznik created.
