The "Commonwealth of Kentucky" designation on this note reflects a longstanding American quirk: four U.S. states — Kentucky, Virginia, Massachusetts, and Pennsylvania — are technically commonwealths, a distinction that carries no functional legal difference at the federal level but occasionally surfaces in currency-adjacent documents and novelty issues. This is not a Federal Reserve note. The 2022 date and Kentucky attribution place it firmly in the category of fantasy or novelty currency — no state government in the United States has issued paper money since the Civil War era, when state-chartered bank notes were effectively killed off by the 1865 federal tax on them.
The hologram security feature is a common inclusion on novelty pieces manufactured to look semi-official.
