The Canadian $1 bill used to be green (with a lot of grey ink on it). now its a coin. and the Canadian $2 bill was orange. now its also a coin. Canadian $5 is blue Canadian $10 is purple Canadian $20 is a bright green Canadian $50 is red Canadian $100 is brown |

User ID: 76296689 Canada 03/22/2018 03:11 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | A little history: "In 1861, as a means of financing the American Civil War, the federal government began issuing paper money for the first time since the Continental Congress printed currency to help pay for the Revolutionary War (the earlier form of paper dollars, dubbed continentals, were produced in such high volume that they soon lost much of their value). In the decades leading up to the Civil War, private, state-chartered banks printed paper money, resulting in a wide range of denominations and designs. The new bills circulated by the U.S. government starting in the 1860s came to be known as greenbacks because their back sides were printed in green ink. This ink was an anti-counterfeiting measure used to prevent photographic knockoffs, since the cameras of the time could only take pictures in black and white."

Of course not! That's for their black magician maniacs to conjure up and present as a corporate watered-down PR campaign while remaining behind the scenes like they don't even exist! Same for most industries - the ones "in the know" like to play cat and mouse from behind an endless curtain of deniability. Last Edited by PhiloSophiaZoso on 03/22/2018 02:00 PM Nature in human form.

Bleaching fibers tends to make them less durable so raw paper had a green tint. Inks and dye came later when cotton and flax and wood were mixed into pulps and the convention of greenish money was established. |
