Hooray for the red, yellow and orange!


With five of them, you can Get Out of Jail!, and you can get twenty of them each time you pass Go. Starting next year, the ten-dollar bill will come to you in colors other than green, black and white. And, for that matter, in colors other than those used in the $20 bill (peach) and the $50 (red).

And here's an interesting note: the Treasury is planning to redesign our currency every 7 to 10 years, in order to stay ahead of counterfeiters.
