US bills dated before 1990 don't have very sophisticated anti-counterfeiting features. You won't find a watermark, security strip, or microprinting. About all you can do is:

- Look for tiny red and blue threads worked into the paper

- Check the engraving. It should be sharp and clear, with apparent depth.

- Look at the "teeth" of the Federal Reserve seal. They should be evenly-spaced and sharply pointed.

Can you use a counterfeit pen on a 1985 series 100 dollar bill?

Yes, you can use a counterfeit pen on a 1985 series $100 bill, but it may not provide reliable results. Counterfeit pens are designed to detect the presence of certain chemicals found in modern banknotes, which could lead to a false negative on older bills like the 1985 series. The ink used in older currency may not react in the same way as newer bills, so it's best to use additional methods for verification.
