I worked as a teller in the late 90s. Every time I see these kinds of bills, I always pull them out of rotation even tho they are perfectly fine tender.

Also, money is disgusting.

Did you do the same with bills stamped for Where's George?

I looked it up, and that 'program' started in 98, so I'm not sure if there was much overlap with you. And another guy already talked about how stamping bills like this isn't illegal (not that I disagree with your decision). So I'm just curious how my bills fare when they reach a bank.

I left in late 98. So ya I saw these all the time. I never understood what they were so I kept them in rotation because it wasn't as blatant as the other religious stamps.

I also pulled out defaced bills such as someone drawing a Hitler mustache on Washington. Torn bills also got pulled out.

There is some paperwork required to turn these things into the reserve. Once you submit them back to the reserves, regardless of if they were truly damaged or defaced, they just trust the teller's discretion and destroy the bills.

Where's George was based in the datacenter I worked at. Half a cabinet.

Did you pull the where's George ones too? I never see those anymore

[-] jaschen@lemm.ee 2 points 5 months ago

Honestly I didn't. But when I became a branch manager, my service manager(teller manager) required everything to get pulled out if it even had anything more than a counterfeit marker line.
