[edit] 1999 Twenty

any information of the twenty dollar bill printed in 1999 with blue ink on the left side of the bill?

[edit] Tourist Attraction

Perhaps we could expand on this article, talking about the tourist part of the Bureau of Engraving and Printing. If possible from a Neutral PoV? Tony 23:48, 16 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Production figures

We need to indicate if the production figures are in units or in dollars. That is, for 2000, were 492,800,000 ten-dollar bills printed or were 49,280,000 ten-dollar bills printed, amounting to $492,800,000? --Tysto 20:43, 4 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Self Inconsistency?

"In 1877, the Bureau became the sole producer of all United States currency." "The BEP does not produce any U.S. coins"

Taken together, this seems to indicate that U.S. coins are not considered currency. - Tmhand 14:15, 22 June 2006 (UTC)

The term "currency" in the U.S. usually refers to paper money unless your using it in the context of international currencies; I do see what you mean though. --Kurt 20:44, 22 June 2006 (UTC)
I've changed it to the Bureau became the sole producer of all United States bills and notes. Is this ok? Joe I 22:52, 22 June 2006 (UTC)
Eliminates confusion. Thanks. -- Tmhand 15:04, 27 June 2006 (UTC)
