Celebrity Notes
Currency notes upon which the portraits of well-known personalities (such as
Santa Claus and movie stars) are temporarily affixed, are for the most part
found to be genuine United States currency. Private businesses produce these
novelty items by purchasing new currency notes from banks and subsequently
apply the picture of a well-known personality over the engraved portrait on
the bill by means of a pressure-sensitive adhesive. These businesses then
charge their customers premium prices.
At least two statutes that may apply to celebrity notes are 18 U.S.C. §§
333 and 475. 18 U.S.C. § 333 provides: “Whoever mutilates, cuts, defaces,
disfigures, or perforates, or unites or cements together, or does any other
thing to any bank bill, draft, note, or other evidence of debt issued by any
national banking association, or Federal Reserve bank, or the Federal Reserve
System, with the intent to render such bank bill, draft, note, or other
evidence of debt unfit to be reissued, shall be fined not more than $100 or
imprisoned not more than six months, or both.”
Additionally, 18 U.S.C. § 475 subjects to punishment anyone who “writes,
prints, or otherwise impresses upon or attaches to any such instrument,
obligation, or security, or any coin of the United States, any business or
professional card, notice, or advertisement, or any notice or advertisement
whatever . . . .” The prohibition contained in section 475 may apply when a
“celebrity note” is being used as a form of commercial advertising.
A determination of the legality of any particular celebrity note is a matter
within the authority of the Department of Justice.
The Bureau of Engraving and Printing’s position regarding this matter is
that this and similar other treatments of United States currency are
demeaning. This type of enterprise is neither endorsed nor authorized by
officials at the Bureau of Engraving and Printing.

簡單來說,BEP並沒有正式授權這種紀念紙幣可以當做一般貨幣使用
E-Bay上的美國財政部授權應該是指"授權印製並販售紀念紙幣"
[應該不會有人花大錢拿來當做貨幣來用]
