Best Answer

No. There's an urban legend that the reverse side of the current $2 bill includes a person of African ancestry because the picture's shading gives one man's face a darker appearance than the others.

The reality is that the engraving is taken from Trumbull's "Signing of the Declaration of Independence" which only depicts white males. The painting itself isn't discriminatory because it shows an historical fact: there were no women or people of color among the signers because at that time they were almost never allowed to hold positions of leadership.

No, this is a myth. First, a living president cannot be on any American money; and second, America does not have a 25 dollar bill. We have twenties, and we have fives. You may have seen a commemorative coin or bill for collectors, or perhaps you saw a bill from a foreign country, but there is no American coin or bill with Bill Clinton, George W. Bush, or Barack Obama on it.
