I think we need larger banknotes. A $500 bill would be great

Heck, my weekly grocery bill is $250 most times. A 500 dollar bill would be nice.

Considering how much value the dollar has lost if it weren't for cashless transactions that dominate the largest payments the $500 and $1000 would probably actually have some modern day use.

We need to bring back the 500 and 1000. Stuff is getting more expensive.

With all the inflation going on, we need higher denomination dollar Bill's more than we need $2 bills. Instead of a stack of $100s, I prefer a couple of $1000s.

I own a red seal 1953 $2 dollar bill in pretty good condition. I absolutely love the $2 bills personally because I have plenty of stories about them. I'd love to see a comeback of the $2 denominations.

I think I am the only person under 20 that watches this. I love it!

One of the guys I used to work for got hassled by a clerk and a manager at some mall sandwich shop when he tried to pay his bill using a 2 dollar bill. Even called a mall security guard over to explain about this "fake" money! Crazy!!

I almost got the cops called on me at a supermarket because I tried using 2 $2 to purchase groceries. Cashier stopped while taking my payment, called out a secret protocol sentence to secretly summon the manager, and I was told that I was using counterfeit money by both of them. I told them it was legal tender and if I was going to use counterfeit it would be of an discontinued bill of such a low number using this current year. I argued with the manager and he got angrier, probably because he knew if I was right he would be known as a complete idiot. Luckily, a bank teller came in and intervened, wearing a bank of America name tag, and told the manager that it was real. He STILL stammered about an authority of currency being against him. I am glad the cops never came because I have read stories about being actually being booked for using $2 bills because no one during the process, especially cops, knew $2 bills exist.

I was looking around in my late great grandfathers wallet and found these! I thought they were fake until today. Great video!

My dad used to say that he would retire if he ever saw a 100 dollar bill. He didn’t really retire because they became so common.😂

I vaguely remember my mother having a $500 dollar bill in the 90's for whatever reason... and ended up breaking the bill at a gas station for fuel LOL!

In 1971 I went to the bank and bought a 1,000 dollar bill

I have a couple dozen $2 dollar bills. Two of them are series 2013 star notes from the same sheet, in perfect conditon.

Over the years, there have been several attempts to switch the US to a $1 coin to save money on printing. Why haven't there been similar efforts with the $2 denomination? Most other countries have a coin for both their 1 and 2 denominations.

We have so many at the store I work at. Sometimes people ask if they can exchange some. I can’t imagine dealing with $500 or a $1000 bill though

I'll bet nowadays these Bill's would be popular. A lot of people still deal in cash only and it's not just for money laundering.

@The Two Dollar Bill Documentary Great video! I got $50.00 worth of $2.00's and spent some at the same Burger King in Brownwood, TX Walmart, as the young lady at the register asked if they were legal and real, the manager's popped open, and said.. "OH YES They Are! COOL!!" was his reply.. Positive response!

As an AUstralian, I find it strange that you do not use the 50 cent or $2 that often. But I understand why those over $100 are not used. Many countries have withdrawn higher denominations, the latest was Singapore with the $10,000.

I love your book!!!! It's great. I already gave it away to my grandson who also loves $2 bills!

Me, who plays monopoly: *you fool, I have many 500 dollar bills!*

They should bring em back imo.

$500 $1000 $5000 and $10000 bills are so cool wish I could have one LOL

Great video. I'm a small coin and bill collector. I got a few 2 dollar bills and I love them.

This was a great video!

Lucky man... He can carry around a $1000 and $500 banknote. Most people cannot afford this considering it's collector value.

yep....500 & 1000 us bills were withdrawn by the FR in 1969 so they are very rare in pawn shops or in bank vaults!!

I have a couple $1000 bills. I have to pay on them every month.

I would have liked to see the old $2 bill design in circulation just prior to the 1976 release

I was at a Dollar General Store trying to pay with an older $100 bill. The clerk tried to tell me that it was counterfeit and that she had to confiscate it. She even marked it with the special marker, which she obviously didn't know how to properly use. I told her that I didn't think so. I was so angry. I told her that I knew that it was good because I had just received it from my bank. The next time I went to my bank I told them what had happened and they just laughed. My point is that these companies don't properly train their employees or then again perhaps she might have just been trying to scam me. Who knows? I refuse to go back to that particular location though.

I would like to see the return of the $500 note with President McKinley on the obverse and Mt. McKinley on the reverse.

Wow...I had no idea. Very interesting video. Thank you for the great info. :)

Awesome video.

Well... I think with the way inflation keeps going, they're going to have to bring back the $500 and $1,000 bill, if paper money is still around in 20 years.

Has the withdrawal of large denomination U.S. currency ($500 or greater) REALLY made a dent in money laundering, drug trafficking, tax evasion, or other illicit activities?

I used to collect every 2 dollar bill when I worked a register and then found it pointless and started spending them. I wonder if they will ever become valuable if they discontinue it with so many out there. Also 400th comment

I've never seen a $1,000 bill in person before they must have been pretty neat though.

500 and 1000 bills aren't used anymore because a lot of people don't have $500 in their bank account!

After receiving a $500 bill or a $1000 bill from the bank or the money show, what happens if someone spends using a $500 bill or a $1000 bill at the store or any other places like that? That will be obviously real or fake?

After watching a lot of pawn stars clips, I'd say 200 and 500 dollar bills would be a blessing for situations when rare things do need to be sold for cash.

I just spent 400 worth of 2$ Bill's Infact took one in my till as well lol.

I’m watching this video right now and casualy holding a big stack of two dollar bills 😂

I always like watching old game shows like Let's Make A Deal and Treasure Hunt where contestants would be winning or giving up these old $500/$1000 bills. On one occasion a $5000 bill was offered but nobody won it.

Why is a picture in the background from a $2 bill

What ever happened to the Gold, Silver, and Platinum stamped bills?

ID LIKE TO SEE A THOUSAND DOLLAR BILL BROUGHT BACK LOOKING ALMOST EXACTLY LIKE THE ORIGINAL EXCEPT HAVE THE BLUE STRIP AND THE GOLD WRITING ON THE BACK WITH THE THOUSAND DOLLARS ON THE END LIKE THE HUNDRED MAYBE THEN THEY COULD BE BACK IN CIRCULATION WITH THE SECURITY FEATURES ON THEM THEY HAVE NOW I LOVE THEM

I like $2 bills , I mean a $1 is worthless today and wear out too fast .One thing that wasn't mentioned , I have newer ones with regular seals but a couple have red seals …..is there any difference price wise ?

I LOVE THE 500 AND 1000 BILLS I REMEMBER RECIEVING A ONE THOUSAND DOLLAR BILL TWICE FROM MY MOTHER AND FATHER FOR MY WEDDING SHOWER AND WEDDING GIFT I LOVED IT I WAS SAD TO FIND OUT THEY STOPPED MAKING THEM DAMMED COUNTERFEITERS THEY RUIN EVERYTHING

You can find monopoly money today! it's what we spend daily printed by BEP. I was fortunate enough to live through the 50's to today. I'm not rich, but bought 2's from 1928 to 76 in the packets of 100 new, and some 500 and 1000 notes in 1968. never get rid of em. Our currency and coin look like crap. liked the video...

Super like 👍👍👍

Do you reckon that at some point in the future they might brink back the 500 and 1,000 dollar bills and higher denomination bills?

$1000 and $500 bills are still legal tender. So if you're constantly carrying $1500 around in your wallet, you could be asking for trouble.

Just out of curiosity, are there any 50 or 1000 bills out there?

I enjoyed this video. If I am not mistaken, wasn't there also a 10k bill?

I have a Brazil 500$! 😁

I like this video

Should we redesign the two dollar bill?

What was the reason they made the 1000 and 500 dollar Bill's

$500 and $1,000 bills are more useful now then back then. like buying items with large price tags, like tech, cars, and rent. id really love to see these printed again, I just wish they would. print these or make our money colorful I would say, our money in America is boring. I really like euros, my mom is French so i've been introduced to these colorful since I was a little boy. and they even have one $1 coin or 1 euro I should say. this would make sense for the US to make at lest $1 coin since paper bills don't last as long as coin, they could save some money there. also EU makes 2 cent coins which would be very useful here when giving out change.

I truly feel for the young

That was fun! I've been wondering about those!

Why are there a lot of $2 bills in circulation even today

Strong possibility that far down the road in time, all the smaller denominations may become obsolete as did the high denomination notes. And all currency becomes digital in the virtual world.

I feel it. When they announced to discontinue the 500€ note I saved one.

When did Monopoly add the $1000 bill to the game? I own a couple of Monopoly sets and the biggest bills are the $500.

Time to bring back the 500 for sure.

What is the history of the two dollar bill

So why did we have 500 and 1000 dollar banknotes?

Nice

I read about a guy that got arrested for counterfeiting $2 bills ,the cashier and cop probably never heard the end of it . But I have a question … Are $500 and $1,000 bills still good? I don't have any but wish I did.Too many numismatics to choose from.

They should make 500.00 and 1000.oo again .the government is so crazy.

He could sell that 500$ and 1000$ and get wayyy more than the face value

The only use for a note larger than $100 denomination is the convenience for illegal activity. Honest people use credit cards, or cashier's checks. Much more currency would leave our country if we had larger notes.

Why does the 2 dollar bill have a portrait on the back compared to other bills where there is famous buildings

Do old money is worth more than new money

i agree

Try buying a iPad with 2 dollar bills at best buy

Is there any truth to the story that a child was arrested for using a $2 bill to pay for his school lunch and the school accused him of using fake money because they were unaware the $2 bill actually existed?

I thought those where just fake bills or myths :0 You learn something new everyday :D

i love the monopoly part

1:43 let me get 4 bricks

Bring them back!!!

Not to mention they don't print $5000 and $10000 bills anymore either. If you have ever toured the BEP they have a sheet of 10 $100,000 bills on display. Those were only used for International transactions and never placed in circulation.

😊 I don't ever hear about $2 bills even mentioned I don't know.

What happen if there were still making $500 bills thousand dollar bills

Why did they used to put red seals on two dollar bills?

i have asked repeatedly at bank of america in my area for two dollar bills, dollar coins and half dollar coins and have got the same answer. "we don't have any".

$500s and $1,000s need to come back. Stacking $100s gets old all the time. 💸 💰 🤑 💲 💵

It's 2022...if it is possible to bring them back; It'd be pretty neat. But slim slim chance, but who knows.

or the 100000 dollar bill with woodrow wilson

I wonder if $500.00 or $1000.00 bills were re released would they resemble the new $100.00?

CAn you still buy something using an old 500 or 1000$ bill?

In Europe, 200 and 500 euro bills circulate. But hear talk of doing away with the 500 euro bill because money laundering and drugs trafficking. Banks in the UK may not accept them.

Bank can only make higher numbers if the currency decreasing its value. Like ours..

Is the $2 bill the rarest bill still being printed? My 6-year-old son (Tazi O) is curious about this question as well. :) Thank you!

Why do we call them "bills" when it says "federal reserve note". I heard other countries call them notes not bills.

Why Do The $2 Bills Don’t Have The Monticello On The Back Anymore?

I had no idea 500 or 1000 bills even existed lol

what is the probability of getting a two dollar bill while shopping?

i heve 70 bills 2
