United States Twenty-Dollar Bill

The item is a United States twenty-dollar bill, featuring a portrait of President Andrew Jackson on the obverse. The bill is predominantly green and white, printed on a linen-cotton blend paper specific to U.S. currency. It displays the serial number AB22173897F twice on the obverse: once on the upper left and once on the lower right, below the signature of the Treasurer of the United States. The series indicator below the left serial number is 'B2'. The text 'FEDERAL RESERVE NOTE' is printed at the top center. To the right of Jackson's portrait, the text 'THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA' is visible above the prominent 'TWENTY' denomination. Two seals are present: the Federal Reserve Seal on the left, an inkwell-shaped design, and the Treasury Seal on the right, which is green. A notable distinguishing element is the presence of a purple ink or dye stain on the right side of the bill, near the top right corner and partially obscuring the value '20'. The bill shows visible signs of wear consistent with circulation, including creases, folds, and a general softened appearance of the paper, indicating it is not in pristine condition. There are no obvious tears or significant damage beyond the aforementioned stain and general wear. The craftsmanship is consistent with standard U.S. currency production, including intricate microprinting and security features typical of its era, though these are not fully discernible from the image alone. Based on the design, particularly the portrait and lack of larger numerals found on some later series, it likely belongs to a series from the late 20th or early 21st century.
