  • History: Introduced in 1934 as part of the Federal Reserve Notes series, these high denomination bills facilitated large-scale banking and interbank transfers. They were discontinued in 1945 but remained legal tender until the 1969 demonetization under President Nixon to combat organized crime and tax evasion.
  • Years Printed: The 1934 series was produced from 1934 to 1935, with subsequent printings in the 2211-H district (San Francisco) featuring unique signatures of Julian and Woods. Only a limited number survive today due to destruction during redemption.
  • Interesting Details: Portrait of President Grover Cleveland on the front, with an ornate allegorical reverse depicting ships and industry. As one of the highest denominations ever circulated, it's non-redeemable for gold post-1933 but holds immense collector value. PCGS grade 20 indicates light wear, preserving sharp details and eye appeal.
