Описание: AllRound English

In today’s episode, we explore the hilarious and heartwarming true story of Mr. 880 — the kindest counterfeiter in American history. For ten years, Emerich Juettner fooled the Secret Service with the worst fake one-dollar bills ever printed. His bills were crooked, blurry, and even misspelled “Washington” as “Wahsington.”
So how did a gentle old man with a hand-cranked kitchen press slip past federal agents for a decade?
And why did Hollywood pay him more money than he ever made counterfeiting?
