Oh, you want to scan them and compare online?  AFAIK, in the US, it is not
illegal to make copies of currency as long as the copy is a certain minimum
percentage larger or smaller.  Not sure of the percentage.  25% +- does spring
to mind, though.

It's my understanding, also, that some percentage of the scan or copy needs
to be obscured or obliterated.

But that probably wouldn't get in the way of getting two scans, with
different parts missing, and pasting them together digitally...

I must be sick, I just took the time to search this out:
http://www.ustreas.gov/usss/money_illustrations.htm

Pretty interesting.  The most interesting point is the how to define "after
their final use" in section #3.

I'll read it later. I do know a phenomenal amount of US dollar
notes pass through London, via some US city, each week.
Replacement of old bills going to the US, and new, from.
And, come to think of it, how does one specify a size on a computer monitor?
For instance, the image on the page:
http://www.ustreas.gov/usss/money_damaged.htm  seems to be almost exactly
life-sized on my monitor.
