This is an interesting home experiment you can do. Take a new U.S. five or twenty, and place it in a microwave oven. Place it on high and watch what happens to the eyes of Andrew Jackson. Let me know what you find as it is a development concerning this new money which also sets off store monitors. Somthing to this story for the future. Hmmmm.
Be careful to get the money quickly or it may incinerate and you are out some money. So don't destroy it as this is illegal, and silly. Just see what happens.
