I guess someone has an issue with the $5 bill. Or, they just want to make Lincoln even more popular.

Immortal...or is he

[ChrisInBaltimore]

You know Lincoln is supposedly immortal and a major character in the Invincible Universe right?

 

And is it illegal to draw on money? I used to mark bills in counting all the time...

If that was a Cuban Cohiba, the penalties are much worse.

I'm pretty sure it's only illegal if you try to spend it afterwards.

 

As long as you own it, you can do anything you want to it.

It's only illegal to try to put it back into circulation.

These might become the new Hobo nickle.

He's no J. S. G. Boggs. wiki

 

best known for his hand-drawn, one-sided depictions of U.S. banknotes (known as "Boggs notes") and his various "Boggs bills" he draws for use in his performances.

He spends his "Boggs notes" only for their face value. If he draws a $100 bill, he exchanges it for $100 worth of goods. He then sells any change he gets, the receipt, and sometimes the goods he purchased as his "artwork." If an art collector wants a Boggs note, he must track it down himself. Boggs will tell a collector where he spent the note, but he does not sell them directly."
