7. It's not really an American flag on a Candian $2 bill

It's actually the old Dominion flag, which looks, due to the lack of detail, to be similar to the American flag-- but there are no parallel stripes on the Dominion flag. The Dominion flag was replaced with the Maple Leaf in 1965.

And only about half of the states' names appear on the US $5 bill.
