I've been discussing this with Sith Sheriff Brody on IM and these are some things I noticed and discussed with him. If anyone sees anything different then voice your ideas. I'm hoping more eyes might find more details.
First off, the series bill is definitely more square than the movie bill. The pic of the envy bill shows that it's definitely been squashed lengthwise.

Second is regarding the artwork on the one side (I know Philippes has stated in the past that the bills were the same on both sides, but I will go into that in a sec). It's too hard to tell what it is, but I'm going to assume there is some Chinese significance to it. Perhaps if anyone here is Chinese or knows someone who is Chinese they might recognize it.

Ok, then we get to the bill either having 2 different sides or there being 2 different bills. In the screen grab where Mal flips the bartender the bill it's obviously different than the other bills seen folded up in the otehr screen grabs and even the back of the one you can see in his other hand in the same scene. After a lot of thinking and some playing around I think it might be the same Bhutan note but modified a little differently. In the pic below I cut out the circle in the centre and englarged it and also kept it circular while squashing the rest of the bill (see the image below that which is just a quick and dirty version of what I think they might have done).

So, ideas? Thoughts? Am I making myself look like an ass here?
