Verifying if a 1950 one hundred dollar is counterfeit can be done in a number of ways. Initially check for a thread pattern in the paper. US currency has paper with a rag content including visible threads. then check for a watermark. A watermark cannot be xeroxed properly. Finally, the disclosure pen found at retail stores can check the chemical content of the paper to verify authenticity.
to tell if a dollar is fake look closely at it and there should be little red/blue "hair" looking parts on it hope this helped
Trade dollars were only made from 1873 to 1875 and have the words TRADE DOLLAR in large letters on the back. Anything else is a fantasy piece or a counterfeit.
Check the weight. An authentic US silver dollar should weigh 26.73 grams. If the coin is heavily worn, the weight might be just slightly less.
Very easily. The first Trade Dollars were minted in 1873. If your coin says Trade Dollar on the back and is dated 1797 it is a counterfeit. The market has been flooded with counterfeit dollars, some very good, some laughably bad with impossible dates, designs, or mint marks.
All replica coins sold in the USA are required to be marked with the word "COPY" in a conspicuous location on the coin. If a replica does not have the word "COPY", then it is a counterfeit.
Take it to a bank, they will be able to tell you if it really is genuine.

Now a days there are security features on the 100 dollar bills to help you detect if the bill is counterfeit or not. One of the features is a watermark. If you hold the bill up to the light you will see a faint image of Benjamin Franklin to the right of the portrait.
The lack of "In God We Trust" on a 1950 twenty dollar bill is not indicative of a printing error or counterfeit. The motto was added to U.S. currency starting in the mid-1950s, so bills printed before that time do not contain it. To determine if a bill is a counterfeit, look for watermarks, security threads, color-shifting ink, and other security features typical of genuine currency.
The US did print 10,000 dollar bills. Since these are of a higher denomination and more scarce than 1,2,5,10 and 20 dollar bills there is a higher chance that it is a counterfeit bill. However just because there is a higher chance does not mean that it is fake. The best way to find out if it is fake is to take it to trusted and experienced collector. He or she will probably be able to tell you.
