just found out there are actually valuable american bills still floating around that most people have no idea about. like there's this $1,000 bill from 1861 that's literally the largest denomination bill ever made for public use - grover cleveland's on it and it can be worth $1500-$2500 depending on condition. wild right?

also the 1928 $500 bill with mckinley on it goes for $1000-$1500, and apparently they stopped printing these large denomination bills back in 1969. the $100 from 1950 with benjamin franklin is probably your best shot at actually finding one in circulation - those go for like $120-$150.

then there's the 1862 $50 bill with grant and these 1933-34 $10 silver certificates with the blue seals. the ones with light green seals are worth more, can get $20-$35 if they're in good shape.

so basically the largest denomination bill ever made is worth serious money if you can find it. has anyone actually come across any of these? or am i just going to be checking my wallet forever for nothing lol
