Money Charms US
Changing Money
Several years ago the Bureau of Engraving and Printing
was sued by the American Council of the Blind in order to
force the BEP to create paper currency that is discernible
to the blind population. An Order
Injunction for Case 1:02-cv-00864-JR was put in place
by Judge James Robertson, forcing the BEP to follow an outlined
procedure for developing a solution for blind. A final element
of the procedure is to provide a Public
Notice (please check Public Submissions when
visiting this link) of what the BEP plans are for paper
money design changes.
Upon reading the document, TREAS-DO-2010-0003-0001.pdf,
prepared by the BEP for the proposed changes, it is apparent
that a better solution that I developed and submitted to
the BEP several years ago which involves creating a windowed
shape around a durable material similar to the denomination
band in paper money currently is not being considered.
For a detailed explanation of Money Charms, please read
the report MoneyCharms2008.pdf
which provides sample images of the reverse side and also
reasons why using Braille or other more involved shapes
is not recommended.
Unfortunately the BEP never offered Money Charms as an
option for focus groups to consider. At the very least,
the BEP should research and consider Money Charms for the
simple reason that every viable alternative should be considered.
The following is from a letter I sent to the Honorable Judge
James Robertson as to where the recommendations proposed
by the BEP fail when compared to Money Charms.

Re: Case 1:02-cv-00864-JR
Dear Honorable James Robertson,
Your leadership in the matter of Case 1:02-cv-00864-JR
places you in a position of appreciating what solution
will unfold for paper currency being made discernible
by the blind population, and that an effective solution
could be rendered on a world wide scale.
Upon reviewing the online documents at moneyfactory.gov uscurrency meaningfulaccess.html
I am concerned that the BEP doesn't appear to be considering
a viable solution that I first presented to the BEP
in 2007 February. According to Appendix_A_Focus_Group_Questions.pdf
the option of having an indented or windowed tactile
element is not proposed to the focus group. The only
tactile elements proposed are; i. Raised, ii. Smooth,
iii. Braille, iv. Lines, v. Symbols and vi. Vary location
or vary texture pattern. I believe that an indented-window
tactile element works with current technology and
will be able to be implemented more efficiently, smoothly
and effectively into the public monetary system. In
