THESE ARE THE CURRENT FEDERAL RESERVE NOTE SINCE 1934. IN 1996 CHANGES WERE MADE TO KEEP THE COUNTERFEITING DOWN .STARTING WITH THE $100 BILL AND ENDING IN 1999 WITH THE $5 BILL.IN 1969 ALL LARGE DENOMINATION BILLS WERE DISCONTINUED BECAUSE OF LACK OF CIRCULATION AND TO DISCOURAGE LARGE TRANSACTIONS OF ORGANIZED CRIME.THESE BILLS WERE $500- $10,000 . THE $100,000 BILL IS THE MOST INTERESTING BILL OF THEM ALL! THE $ 100,000 BILL WAS NOT A REGULAR ISSUE AND WAS ONLY USE IN TRANSACTION BETWEEN THE FEDERAL RESERVE BANKS! THERE WERE ONLY ABOUT 1000 EVER MADE! MOST WERE DESTROYED IN 1969 A FEW EXAMPLES EXIST WERE THEY ARE HOUSED AT THE NATIONAL ARCHIVES IN WASHINGTON DC. AND AT THE FEDERAL BUREU OF ENGRAVING.IT IS ILLEGAL TO OWN A $100,000 BILL!! THE $5,000 AND $10,000 BILL ARE VERY RARE AND SOUGHT AFTER BY COLLECTORS AROUND THE WORLD BRINGING MUCH AS $120,000 FOR A CRISP UNCIRCULATED BILL!! THE LATEST RELEASE OF $10,000 BILLS WERE IN 1999 WHEN THE BINION HORSEHOE CASINO SOLD THERE $1,000,000 FACE VALUE OF $10,000 BILLS WHICH WERE DISPLAYED INSIDE FRONT OF THE CASINO!TO OBTAIN A $ 5,000 OR A $10,000 BILL YOU HAVE TO GET A COLLECTORS PERMIT FROM THE FEDERAL GOVERMENT! |
