UNITED STATES of America, Plaintiff-Appellant, v. James J. SCHRECKENGOST, Defendant-Appellee.

United States Court of Appeals, Seventh Circuit.

Decided October 8, 2004.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Robert L. Simpkins (argued), Office of the United States Attorney, Civil Division, Fairview Heights, IL, for Plaintiff-Appellant.

Melissa A. Day (argued), Office of the Federal Public Defender, Benton, IL, for Defendant-Appellee.

Before EASTERBROOK, DIANE P. WOOD, and EVANS, Circuit Judges.

EASTERBROOK, Circuit Judge.

James Schreckengost removed the ink from genuine $5 bills with a chemical solution and used an inkjet printer to produce facsimiles of $100 bills on the blank sheets. These fakes had the feel of currency and could pass some tests employed to identify genuine bills. For example, currency paper has colored threads, a security strip, and a watermark.
