The Money Quiz

11/12

did you miss the $1000?

that's the only one i couldn't remember. darn.

9 out of 12!

Guess I need to start paying attention to those faces...

100%! Woo-hoo!

I only got 58% Once you get past 5 dollars I don't see many of those bills

I have a picture of a golf ball on my credit card, this thing cash you speak of. I have not seen much of it.

kaunes, yes, that was the one I missed!

I can't believe we used to have a one-hundred-thousand-dollar bill. And that it had Woodrow Wilson on it. I did remember who was on the two-dollar bill, though. And I remember what's on the back, the signing of the Declaration of Independence. I get a lot of them in my cash register at work for some reason, so I take them out and spend them for the sake of novelty. I also get a lot of half dollars.

Interesting fact: The one-hundred-thousand-dollar bill was a gold certificate rather than a silver certificate, and was red on the back rather than green. Nothing was on the back but a stylized number 100,000 and the usual fancy engraving, such that I notice has all but disappeared from modern notes.

:( nine out of twelve

you'd think i'd know more of em, considering how much i like money haha

Even though I'm not american, never been to the states and haven't used US bills (or coins) other than the 50 and 100 I got 10 correct answers (By guessing on two of them). That's pretty good if I can say so myself :-)

I got ten out of twelve. Wow, those last ones really were hard. I couldn't remember the last two for the life of me. I may have seen a picture of them once before in my lifetime.

58%. Not completely awful for a foreigner.

The Wilson $100k was never released to the public, it was only used to facilitate exchanges between branches of the Federal Reserve.

Since the thirties it's all been done by wire, though.

I think the Federal Reserve should bail me out of my ignorance by throwing copious amounts of money at me in a desperate attempt to get me to learn my dead presidents (and other persons of high importance).

I got all 12 and the bonus!

did Alex say he'd only not seen one of those before! I doubt ive ever seen a 50 in real life.

No, that was me. I said I only MISSED one question, and it was because I'd never seen the $1000 bill. I haven't seen the other high bills, either, but I guessed them right. You can see them through the pixilation, if you squint hard enough.

Would have like to see the pictures after the quiz was over. I got all the change right :)

Little Miss Musician over here is loving the Beethoven race. Unfortunately, the 5th isn't the most upbeat, speed-inspiring music. I've never been a fan of Bond, but here's a great use for their music-butchering! Finally!

Wow. that comment was totally supposed to be in the race post.

But, so as not to leave this one out, I did horribly. Couldn't get anything over the $50 bill.

10/12 - turns out I didn't know who was on the dime, and am therefore an idiot.

75%...not that bad

I missed the $5000 bill, just because I REALLY wanted Millard Fillmore to be on it.
