The prop money has been created explicitly for photograph & motion picture purposes. While the designs are made to resemble real currency from a distance, and on camera, upon closer inspection they clearly indicate that they are not real currency. Key differences and indicators include:
- Printed on high-quality paper, NOT linen/cotton paper
- Printed using high-quality ink, NOT color shifting ink
- Does NOT state "The United States Of America"
- Does NOT state "Federal Reserve Note"
- States "For Motion Picture Purposes"
- States "This note is for motion picture purposes, it is not legal tender"
- Presidents faces are different from real currency
- Wording, slogans, and feel are different from real currency
- Names and signatures are different from real currency
- Art is different from real currency
- Dates are different from real currency

Prop money is not counterfeit on its own, but using it as real currency is considered counterfeiting, a serious crime. Counterfeiting involves fraudulently passing fake money as legal tender, which can lead to criminal charges, fines, and imprisonment. While prop money is legal for entertainment purposes, attempting to use it in transactions is unlawful. To avoid legal consequences, it should always be clearly marked and never used deceptively.
We reserve the right to refuse service, and/or decline sale, to anyone at our sole discretion.
