I SEE DOLLAR SIGNS!


The Federal Reserve Bank in Atlanta is one of eleven branches throughout the United States that helps the function of monetary policy, bank regulations and a nationwide payment system. You can visit the Atlanta Federal Monetary Museum and discover the fascinating story of money, history of banking, and also examples of rare coins and currency. Also there are interactive and multimedia exhibits explaining the role of the Federal Reserve in our economy. But the real interesting part is taking a look inside the cash-processing operations where millions are sorted, counted and shredded on a daily basis. You also will get a glimpse inside the automated vault and see robotic transports that handle all the heavy lifting. Visit the website, www.frbatlanta.org to sign up for a tour and to check the hours of operation. Show me the money!
