At Binons Horseshoe Club in Las Vegas there is a glass enclosed display of 100 $10,000 bills. (One MIl.$)
When I first saw it (1958), it was promrnetly displayed in the entrance to the gaming hall.
Now it is at the rear of the casino by the stairs leading to the basement bar&grill. (a mil isnt what it used to be)
First & only time I've seen anything more than $100 bill.

I'd be surprised if shady characters haven't a bunch to facilite their shady transactions.
They stopped printing ours in 2000, but they are still legal tender. Link to CBC article (short).

Interesting.
I keep a Canadian 50 dollar bill in my wallet. The older one with the Mounties' Musical Ride on the back.
I pull it out and show it occasionally to (jokingly) show how friendly Canadians are.
"See! They have a picture of the Bush Administration on the back." (Or Klinton, or Carter, or Reagan.)
When I show them the back of the bill and get a puzzled look, I then fold it in half horizontally and show the bottom half -- a bunch of horses rear ends.
It always gets a laugh.

Last time I checked, and I verified it just a few minutes ago, the largest bill in circulation is the $100 bill. So Jack would have been the one who was ripped off.
:confused:
Sorry if this was mentioned earlier in the forum. I looked but didn't find it anywhere.
$1,000 bill, Cleveland Ornate ONE THOUSAND, Denominations of $500 and higher were discontinued in 1969.

Hmm, then that would be a big hole in the movie 'Pacific Heights' with Michael Keaton. If I'm not mistaken, he pays Matthew Modine in $1000 bills to secure the apartment. Of course, Keaton is a con-man, but he's a rich one.
They passed an old woman who was just opening the door of a brown Cadillac. An old man was already sitting in the passenger seat. The car had a personalized plate with the letters “J-U-S-P-R-A-Y”.
“That stuff work?” Israel said to her.
“‘Scuse me?” the little old woman said, clutching her keys.
“The spray. Does it keep them away?”
“Keep who away?” She looked confused.
“I gotcha.” Israel gave her a conspiratorial wink.
