“It’s not a really good counterfeit, but it is definitely counterfeit,” said police detective Terry Luecke.
He said school officials believe the bill was passed at the junior high cafeteria and was caught when a deposit was being prepared.
“It looks like this could have been done on a Xerox type copier or maybe with a computer scanner, it was printed on regular paper,” he said.
The bill will be turned over to the Secret Service, which handles counterfeiting cases, and any further action would probably come from their office, Luecke said.
Police met with school officials and Tom Benson of Aramark, which provides cafeteria services for Snyder schools.
