Usually, you only need to see and feel the dollar bill to tell if it's genuine. The US bank note is contains 75% cotton and 25% linen special paper. The linen gives extra distinctive stiffness, and the printing's in high quality, so the illustrations on the dollar bills should be sharp and distinct.

Bills over $5 use color-shifting ink for the denomination number in the down-right corner. Hold the bill naturally in front of you then tilt it back and forth to shift the number's color between copper and green or green and black.

If you can do this quickly, you wouldn't have to do the more suspicious way of holding the bill up to the light to check for a thread. To check for the thread which should be in a real dollar bill (if it's at least $2), hold it up to the light. There should be a vertical text line and an image that you wouldn't see without holding it up to the light. Threads glow different colors under UV light, if you happen to have a machine that can shoot UV light.
