genuine question, because I forgot a $20 with the laundry at work and I don’t know if the laundry is going to look green or if I’m going to get a white $20 back and clean clothes…

Eh. If it’s an old US bill it might come out a bit more ragged and fragile, but it won’t destroy the money or your laundry.

Do it enough and the money would disintegrate, but a single wash won’t be a problem, just plan on being gentle when you extract it just in case.

Sounds like you’re engaging in money laundering

From a single wash? Practically unchanged. At worst it will be slightly faded.

American money is made of mostly cotton and linen, so it will wash like any other fabric.
