Answer:

There is no change in the color of the bill's ink.

Step-by-step explanation:

Couterfait currency refers to fake money that is printed without permission of the government and it is considered fraud. A clue that the currency is counterfeit is that there is no change in the color of the bill's ink because if you have a bill and you move it back and forth and look at the lower right corner, the numbers there have ink that shifts its color from green to black.
