With US President Barack Obama expected to name the longtime Washington insider, known as Jack Lew, as his next treasury secretary, US media are going crazy - about his signature.

The reason is that the US treasury secretary's signature appears on US currency printed during their tenure. And media have been quick to point out that Lew's is not the most distinguished of scribbles.

"The guy signs his name like a first-grader scrawling loop-the-loops," wrote David Lazarus of the LA Times.

"'OoooooooO!': Jack Lew's Insane Signature Is Going to Be All Over Your Dollar Bills, Soon," read a headline on The Atlantic's website, while New York magazine labelled it "a Slinky that has lost its spring".

"To say that Jack Lew, the soon-to-be Secretary of the Treasury, has the most bewildering signature I've ever had the privilege to see would be a complete and utter understatement," wrote Molly Greenberg of InTheCapital.com.

"His signature just doesn't fit the bill. Literally."
