Reed Banknote Company is a private security printer based in Sarasota, Florida, best known for producing promotional and novelty currency for charitable and commemorative clients. The "4 Ocean Dollars" series was produced in partnership with 4ocean, a for-profit cleanup company founded in 2017 in Boca Raton that funds ocean plastic removal through the sale of braided bracelets made from recovered material. Each bracelet purchase was marketed as funding the removal of one pound of trash from the ocean.
Whether these notes ever functioned as redeemable instruments or served purely as promotional items is not clearly documented in standard numismatic references — they occupy an awkward category between souvenir and scrip.
