4

In the first episode glimpses of money did not look like our bills, and I wondered if it was Canadian, but the show is set in Washington DC. In episode 4 was a better view (Valorum posted a screen grab in an Answer), and I could see that someone imagined a future evolved design for what bills (Treasury Notes) would look like.

Does anyone have a pointer to details concerning this design? I mean, was there a behind the scenes article or bonus content that describes how the design was created and the artist's thoughts behind it?

  • Thanks, @Richard. I don't have a timestamp and I didn't save the episode. There is a clear view when a bag of money is dumped out, but not quite enough to read it in detail. I thought one large word was cursive "Australia" but that doesn't make sense. I did not find anything relevant with Google.

  • I felt that my answer was pretty comprehensive. Is there anything else you'd like to see me address before considering an acceptance?

The future currency is an original prop and features Obama on the $500 bill

Mixed in with the fake notes are some real Australian currency, including a real A$100 bill featuring Dame Nellie Melba.

  • I guess posts are appearing after I searched for it, inspired by the same scene. That blog post said "the lasy is Australian" but I think that's just someone else in my position looking at the frame; not any information from the artist etc.

  • Looks like a woman on the $100 bill too.
