Disappointed by the news that the Trump administration was walking back the plan to put Harriet Tubman on the $20 bill, I created this stamp to convert Jacksons into Tubmans myself. Though anti-counterfeiting laws prohibit the willful destruction of, and stamping of advertisements upon, paper money, pursuant to I.I.18 U.S.C. § 333 of the United States Code, stamped currency is fit for circulation so long as its denomination remains legible. A full explanation of the legality of currency stamping can be found here:https://blog.adafruit.com/2017/10/15/hey-steven-mnuchin-making-harriet-tubman-20s-seems-totally-ok-ustreasury-stevenmnuchin1/and here:https://www.stampstampede.org/faq/yes-its-legal/ Handle is 3D printed, stamp is laser engraved.Included on Thingiverse are three versions of the stamp handle, and the necessary vector files for engraving the stamp itself.
