Saw my first one today. It has Timothy Geitner's signature on it. Oh boy.

Umm, to share in the excitement I would have to know who that is first.
edited: Okay, I have no idea where I was or what I was reading before, but I was certain this had something to do with a coin in a cache of some sort...very odd.
Now that I know it has to do with paper money, I can safely assume this is the treasurer or the sec. of treasury.

Sorry for throwing a curve there... yes I was talking about paper money. Timothy Geithner is the 75th Secretary of the Treasury and his signature is on the right-hand side of series 2009 bills. It replaces the signature of Hank Paulson.

The Bureau of Engraving and Printing (BEP) is also releasing new, redesigned $100 bills. They have a big portrait of Ben Franklin and a large, subdued yellow quill pen with a red inkwell and also a portion of the Declaration of Independence. The inkwell has a red liberty bell design on it made of color shifting ink. It also has a big security ribbon on it with lots of small glass hemishpheres which give a 3-D illusion of motion. I can't wait to see what this looks like in person!

We'll have several bill designs or more in circulation.
Too much "change"

the only thing I have against change, is that it seems to happen in the wrong places.
