Except that you can always go to the bank and trade a dollar that's creased, worn or been ripped into two pieces for a brand new, crisp bill. They both have the exact same face value.
On the other hand, known counterfeit baseball cards might be worth a small amount for collectors interested in using them to fill in a couple of holes until a real version of the card can be found (and as long as they are sold again as counterfeit, I have no problem with that). Counterfeit money...not the same thing.
