When Should You Worry?
Only if the bill shows:
- Incorrect paper texture (feels waxy)
- Missing security thread
- No color-shifting ink on the “20”
- Blurry printing overall
A random symbol alone means nothing.
Why These Posts Go Viral
People love:
- Hidden symbols
- Secret meanings
- “Rare money” stories
Combine that with a strange mark and a camera phone—and suddenly a normal bill becomes a mystery.
But the truth is usually boring:
It’s just ink.
Final Verdict
The “bow and arrow” on your $20 bill is:
✔️ A random ink or handling mark
✔️ Not part of U.S. currency design
✔️ Not valuable or dangerous
✔️ Completely harmless
Interesting to look at—but nothing more.
