What does a 1974 US 100 dollar bill look like?

Answer 1

It looks very different from the current $100 bill.

• Its only colors are green, black, and white.
• Franklin's image is very small and appears in an oval in the center of the front of the bill
• Both sides have borders featuring ornate scrollwork
• The Federal Reserve district letter is on the left side of the front, similar to current $1 and $2 bills.

These older bills are the same size as modern bills and are still valid, although many stores may be reluctant to accept them because they have very few anti-counterfeiting features.
