Yet amidst all the discussion of how the U.S. will attempt to work with Kim Jon-un, there has been little (open) speculation as to whether Dear Leader Junior might crank up production of $100 and $50 bills.

These ultra-counterfeits are light years beyond the weak facsimiles produced by most forgers, who use desktop printers.

With few exceptions, only Federal Reserve banks equipped with the fanciest detection gear can identify these fakes.
