Yea, who can forget the whole Mnuchen signature [photo debacle](https://api.time.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/11/shutterstock_editorial_9224878a_huge.jpg?w=800&quality=85) when he signed the new notes?

If my name started with an M followed by an N, you can bet your sweet bippy I’d make damn sure it was super legible.

> The very first dollar bill in my wallet I checked is Series 2017. :dubious:

I had all 2009 and 2013 dates among a collection of $20, $10, $5, and $1 bills until the one at the bottom – a Series 2017 one-dollar Federal Reserve Note.

Anyone remember the Scholastic Arrow Book [Barrel of Fun](https://www.google.com/search?q=barrel+of+fun+scholastic+book&oq=barrel+of+fun+scholastic+book&aqs=chrome..69i57j33l2.16552j0j8&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8)? It featured a trick that entailed betting you could guess the date of a dollar bill your “mark” pulled from his or her wallet. In one edition, the statement was made that “most dollar bills now in circulation are dated 1939. Very few people know this.” In a subsequent edition, the year had changed to a later one. Apparently, 2013 is the safest guess today.
