New $100 Bills Go into Circulation [PHOTOS]

It’s been over ten years in the works, and finally the U.S. Federal Reserve is rolling out the newly designed $100 bill.

The crisp new Benjamin Franklins come complete with high-tech features to discourage counterfeiting, including a blue 3-D security ribbon, raised printing and color shifting numbers.

Armored trucks are fanning out from regional banks to distribute the new notes to banks, credit unions and other financial institutions around the U.S.

Some people could start seeing the new $100 bills by late Tuesday depending on how close their bank is to a regional Federal Reserve facility.

Some of us may not see them for a good long time.
