$1000

I once asked my bank to cash a check with $1000 bills. They said they couldn't get them because the bills were no longer printed. A few years ago I saw a woman peel 5 $1000 bills from a roll at a Las Vegas blackjack table, which is the only time I ever saw one. The remake of PSYCHO has a scene in which Marian Crane takes several bills from the $400,000 she stole; it could be a phony roll, but I saw four or five of them. Does anyone know if it is possible to obtain G-notes, and if so, how?

My understanding is that the government stopped printing anything over a $100 bill back in the 70s or 80s specifically to make large drug transactions difficult.

Sure you can get them from a collector. Expect to pay a lot more than $1000.

I was at my bank this morning, told them I wanted to surprise my wife for our anniversary, could I get a thousand-dollar bill, was told, no, period, haven't been available for years.

G-note??? Don't you mean M-note?

The facts expressed here belong to everybody, the opinions to me. The distinction is
yours to draw...

Omniscient; BAG

"G-note". "G" is for "Grand". An "M-note", with the Roman numeral for a thousand would only be worth a couple bucks or 1,000 lira!

Guess who's face is on it? hee hee.

Salmon P. Chase was the Secretary of the Treasury when he persuaded A. Lincoln to issue the country's first paper money in order to finance the War. THIS is what got his face on the bill, not some later-in-life political reward.

Not "the country's first paper money".
