Summary

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 or 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:

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.
