When does the $20,000 bill start circulating?

How common are fake bills? While I was in BA I had someone pass a fake 1,000 peso bill. I just laughed thinking it cost more money to print it probably than the value of it which was less than $1. I would guess with this higher note more fakes will go around. To me the money all feels very poor quality. Some of the small notes were all torn up.

When I was first given 20k notes my first unconscious reaction was "are these fake?" They look about as crappy as the 2k bills so whatever your opinion is of them
 
There are certainly more 20k bills about since the turn of the year. But still not available in the cash machines.

A friend gave me one last week and he thought he had given me 2k. They are easily confused ,s o be careful

Yes there are a lot of complaints about that! I don't understand why they did not make it a totally different color. Oh well.It turned out good for you!

Great point! I made this same mistake! You have to be very careful. My mistake was because I assumed all the 20k bills would be new and somehow one I got looked old. I thought it was a 2k note. Must be careful!
