  • Alexander Hamilton is finally catching up with the times. The $10 bill, which sports a portrait of the 18th-century politician, joins the $20 and $50 notes in using new security features intended to defeat high-tech counterfeiters. Introduced in the 1990s, those features include color-shifting ink, watermark and security thread. The redesigned $10 bill is expected to go into circulation in early 2006.
