This is a fantasy or novelty item, not a legal tender banknote. The United States has never issued currency bearing Jackie Kennedy's portrait, and no U.S. note of any denomination has carried her likeness through official channels. The Federal Reserve and Bureau of Engraving and Printing have strict protocols governing whose image may appear on currency — deceased presidents have historically dominated, with Harriet Tubman the only approved non-presidential change to U.S. paper money in recent memory, and even that remains unissued.
Franck Medina is a French artist known for producing elaborately designed fantasy notes in standard banknote dimensions, often featuring American cultural figures. The watermark is decorative rather than security-functional.
