The 'Braille' on the bills is incorrect; $10, $20, and $100 all use the same arrangement of dots, and on the $20 and $100 they're even in the same position on the bill.

What the font used here?

This is a very interesting take on the US paper money... with strong echoes, it seems to me, of the new UK coinage, where the coins come together to make a single image. Very clever, beautiful in an unusual and creative way, and you'll satisfy a ton of people with the $1, anachronism though it is. I would like to see your ideas for the back... and more globally, I would like to see this remarkable idea of a true redesign of US money come to something more than an exercise. Living in Canada, where our money has gone through a number of changes in the 30+ years that I've lived here, and having spent time with the euro and the Australian dollar, this seems really, really overdue.

Hideous. Who wants a bar code on damn currency like a postcard? The florescent green is HORRIBLE.

Extremely well designed notes. Any new money absolutely must be machine readable - the bar code is probably the best way to achieve that.

I think this is a thoughtful, modern take on our outdated currency. It's not quite there yet but it's an excellent start! The barcode is very likely a must in a redesign. With the right security features this has some serious potential :)
