Here are some other USD denominations that I probably will never see

http://www.thememoryhole.org/econ/big-bills/

I had one exactly like that but sold it to little leprechauns for 5 bucks..

It wasn't even real.

SUCKERS!!!

Why limit yourself. I also accept wires and cashier checks :)

I think the look on the bank tellers face would be priceless

I think we would all like to have some of those laying around.... :winkwink:

i guess you didnt read this part

But you can't find a wire transfer laying on the ground..

And even if you find a check that big laying on the ground you can't cash it :ugone2far

I want to know who those dudes on the bills are. :)

Who wouldn't want to find something like that? Damn nice :)

anybody know who was on the legitimate $3 bill? It's not a trick question, but if you don't know you'l be surprised at the answer.

their names are below their pictures

With my luck i would find one of these... The lowest bill ever produced, a 3 cent treasury note

i wish i could get that one also in the ground

What is it worth now though? I'd probably love to have one, 3 cents or not :D

500=mckinley
5k=madison
10k=chase-i think
100k=wilson

funny how the shipping isn't free on this one

so do I

Some lady in Toronto found a bag with $40,000 in it on the street outside my TD branch a month ago. Apparently it was cash from ATMs and fell off a truck :eek2 Pretty close to finding a wire...

do banks carry 500 & 5,000 dollar bills ?

would be neat to see/own one by cashing in 100's for 1 of 'em

10k=Salmon P. Chase (Tres Secy Lincoln Admn)

$500 Note* (Face) - William McKinley (25th U.S. President) (Back) - Numeral 500 and the ornamental phrase "Five Hundred Dollars"
$1000 Note* (Face) - Grover Cleveland (22nd & 24th U.S. President) (Back) - Numeral 1000 and the ornamental phrase "One Thousand Dollars"
$5000 Note* (Face) - James Madison (4th U.S. President) (Back) - Numeral 5000 and the ornamental phrase "Five Thousand Dollars"
$10,000 Note* (Face) - Salmon Chase (U.S. Treasury Secretary under Lincoln) (Back) - Numeral 10,000 and the ornamental phrase "Ten Thousand Dollars"
$100,000 Note* (Face) - Woodrow Wilson (28th U.S. President) (Back) - Numeral 100,000 and the ornamental phrase "One Hundred Thousand Dollars". This note never appeared in general circulation, and was only used in transactions between Federal Reserve Banks.

Currency notes of denominations above $100 are not available from the Department of the Treasury, the Federal Reserve System, or the Bureau of Engraving and Printing. On July 14, 1969, the Department of the Treasury and the Federal Reserve System announced that currency notes in denominations of $500, $1,000, $5,000, and $10,000 would be discontinued immediately due to lack of use. Although they were issued until 1969, they were last printed in 1945.

These notes are legal tender and may be found in circulation today; however, most notes still in circulation are probably in the hands of private numismatic dealers and collectors. If you are interested in purchasing these larger denominations, it is suggested that you contact private dealers or collectors who are usually listed in the classified section of the telephone directory under the headings of ?Coins? and ?Hobbies.?
