I just took a look at this blog and realized that I hadn’t posted in two months. I know it’s a far cry from posting three times per week. I’ve been a little busy looking for work, but I do have a link to post.

It’s Use The Two, a site having to do with what the name implies. It’s not much, but I do like finding sites about toms. There’s even a link back to Where’s George.

It doesn’t look like any new $2 bills have been printed, but I have seen 2009-series $1 and a few $20s have been spotted. According to the BEP production reports, the new Hundreds are being printed, although I don’t know that I’ll be seeing any in the near future. I can’t seem to find anything on when they’ll be released. (If you can find an exact date, please leave a comment with a link.)

I’m hoping that the April report will be posted soon.

Since I usually get singles, I was beginning to wonder if I’d ever get to see a 2009 bill. The first bills to come out as Series 2009 were the $20 bills. Next came the $1 bills. Despite occasionally getting twenties from ATMs, I have yet to see either. Now, according to The Bureau of Engraving and Printing’s production report page, there are now going to be Series 2009 $100 bills.

It looks like the Series 2009 will be of a new design. I don’t see anything on exactly what it will look like. I guess we’ll have to wait until next month to find out. I guess this means that the BEP is producing them, but will be holding off until next month before releasing them.

For now, I’ll just have to keep going through the $1 and $20 bills to be able to enter a Series 2009.
