100 Dollars - State of Oregon

This is not a federal issue. Oregon's 2022 "100 Dollars" is a local complementary currency — sometimes called a community currency — not legal tender under U.S. federal law and not backed by the Federal Reserve. These instruments have appeared sporadically across American municipalities and states since the Depression-era scrip revivals, but Oregon's version sits in a more recent tradition of locally organized economic resilience projects, typically designed to keep spending within a defined regional network.

The hologram security feature is unusual for a note at this level — most community currencies rely on simple offset printing with no anti-counterfeiting infrastructure at all.
