Series 681 military payment certificates were the second series to issue a twenty dollar bill. Twenty dollars could do a lot of damage in Vietnam in the early 1970s. These traded hands frequently. Some people don’t like these because they feel like the soldier depicted on the front of each note looks Asian, and that didn’t sit well with Americans who were fighting Asians at the time. These have of course been devalued, so they aren’t good at twenty dollars any more; and some will trade for less than $20.
