The phrase "in God we trust" wasn't added to US paper money until 1957, so of course it won't be found on a 1950 bill. If you're still concerned, take a closer look at the paper itself. Genuine bills have small red and blue fibers mixed into the paper; something that fakes will lack.

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.

Can a real 1950 twenty dollar bill be marked fake by a counterfeit pen?

No, a real 1950 twenty dollar bill should not be marked as fake by a counterfeit pen since the technology used in the pen is designed to detect specific features found in modern counterfeit bills. The ink on a legitimate 1950 bill may react differently with the pen due to its age, but it should not be mistaken as fake solely based on the pen test.
