Currency-themed website KurrencyKook.com weighed in on the Department of the Treasurys soon-to-be-released 2013 line of $100 bills with a decidedly mixed review Thursday. Overall, the bill is crisp and the inking is neatly done, and yet I cant help but see this entire redesign as a bit of a missed opportunity, said veteran currency reviewer John The Buck Mullen, who gave the banknote 62 cents out of 100 in his 1,100-word write-up. The fine-line printing on the Benjamin Franklin portrait on its obverse is excellent, without a doubt, but ultimately, this only mildly pleasing bill is far from the Treasurys best effort. It leaves one wondering, the farther away we get from the stunning 1996 redesign, if the Treasury will ever again match those lofty heights. KurrencyKooks review contrasted sharply with that of rival site MoneyManDan.com, which claimed the new bill was the kind of legal tender design you dream about: elegant, forward-thinkingand, if I may, this baby looks like a million bucks.
