  NEW CANADIAN $100 CIRCULATES
  

  CBC/Radio-Canada, Canada's national public broadcaster,
  published an item about the country's new $100 bill:
  

  "Canada's new $100 bills were put into public circulation
  Wednesday - the latest of the country's currency notes to
  face a redesign to make them more difficult to counterfeit.
  

  The back of the $100 note will no longer feature a Canada
  goose. It has been replaced with a new theme - "innovation
  and exploration" through mapping. Former prime minister Sir
  Robert Borden is still featured on the note, although with a
  different portrait.
  

  The brown note gets several new anti-counterfeiting features,
  including a metallic holographic stripe, a watermarked portrait
  and a see-through number."
  

  "Many retailers now routinely refuse to accept $100 bank
  notes because of worries they might be counterfeit.
  

  The Bank of Canada plans to introduce new $20 and $50
  notes later this year. The $5 and $10 notes have already been
  revamped with new security features.

  new note, see: Full Story
