Know Your Money (1940)

In the heart of New York City, MGM's daring crime reporter introduces us to the unyielding Captain George D. Waldron of the US Secret Service's NYC District, immersed in a battle against the shadowy world of counterfeiting. The story unfolds around a fascinating case as the city is inundated with a flood of fraudulent $10 bills, the first of which lands in the hands of the Secret Service via an unsuspecting bank. As the team scrutinizes each counterfeit bill, they detect a pattern of unique markings, setting them apart from the genuine currency. The challenge lies not only in distinguishing these phony bills but also in discerning the innocent recipients from the covert operatives within the sprawling distribution network. A meticulous inspection of the paper's origin ensues, accompanied by a thorough investigation into the underbelly of society, probing known felons with a history of counterfeiting. By meticulously piecing together this jigsaw of evidence, they hope to expose the puppeteer at the helm of this elaborate counterfeiting operation. In "Know Your Money", join Captain Waldron on a gripping pursuit of truth, navigating through a labyrinth of deceit and danger, where every counterfeit bill is a clue, and every clue a step closer to unmasking the mastermind.
