Best Answer

Red ink indicates the bill is a United States Note, a form of paper money issued directly by the government instead of by the Federal Reserve System.

During the 20th century US Notes only made up a small fraction of bills in circulation. They had similar designs to and were completely equivalent to green-seal Federal Reserve Notes, so production was discontinued in the late 1960s to save on printing and distribution costs.
