I've been commissioned to create some promotional 'play' money. Does anyone know the font used for the numbers on US bills? Any maybe how I could go about getting one of those weird spiraling lines backgrounds? (I don't think scanning is legal)

I guess a better title would be 'i have to show the client the money' :P
So anyone know? The U.S. Mint doesnt seem to want to help me:
