In 2021, the name on this part changed from "100 dollar bill" to "100
paper bill"... seems like an odd move to me.
Certainly made it harder to search.
And maybe other regions or countries would refer to it as a "100 paper
bill" or the feeling is that "paper" is more generic bc not every
country's currency is a called a "dollar", but I feel like that could
have been added to the "dollar bill" verbiage.
The part appears to have had the same name from 2001 to 2021, so I think there
should be more consideration put into changing the name on parts with established
names.

The reason it was removed was that the piece does not show a dollar sign anywhere,
and the key word "dollar" in the catalog should only be associated with
things that actually display a dollar sign. The change was accepted to make it
more generic since it is meant to represent a generic paper money.
Cheers,
Randy

Similarly, I had this one changed (but much quicker than 20 years) as there was
no indication of it being in cents.

| We don’t call our non metallic currency bills either, we call them notes.
I say non metallic because our notes are now plastic.

| I have updated the name to be even more generic.
