During a bank robbery, how are the dollar bills "marked" in order to be tracked after the robbery?


Additional Details
I mean BEFORE dye packs. Like in an investigation how they catch the people because they were spending the "marked" bills.


    




James R
Every bill in US currency has a serial number on it, and police write down the serial numbers in order to track them.

Notice on the $100 bill in the link above, the serial number is - FF 95594731 A - the police would keep a record of the numbers on all of the bills so whenever the suspect is taken down, if the serial numbers match they are charged with the crime.

exploding dye pack.

they drop a dye pack in the bag


Guanyi
currency of all kinds must have a special serial number, the money stored in must be recorded in computer systems. with this, the gangsters can be tracked down.
