Isn't it Illegal to post (or even scan) a High Resolution image of U.S. Currency?
Advertisements [?]
Just asking because someone posted a 17mb high-res scan of series 2003A $100 Federal Reserve Note at Wikipedia.

It looks like this is the 3rd version (and the highest res) of the $100.00 dollar bill that's been posted there and it looks like past discussion pages about the image have been deleted in the past, but again, isn't it illegal to scan and post that? If it isn't, it probably should be.

Unfortunately, the image is so large that I can't get the direct link to work here, but if you click the link below, it takes you to were the discussion page was, then click the "Image" tab at the top of the page to see the actual image. Here's the link:

<http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Image_talk:Usdollar100front.jpg&action=edit>

Or go to this page on Meyer Guggenheim and then click the tiny little $100 Dollar bill under the words "See Also" <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meyer_Guggenheim>

NOTE: It might have already been deleted, as what I said to do above didn't work for me, but it still there if you go the second route, though it might still work for me because it's in my internet cache, so I'm not sure. All I know is that it was there when I stated writing this.
