Do they even Distribute 1 Thousand DOllar bills anymore at banks?? I thought the Highest was 100 Dollar Bills.

I found a hundred bucks on the floor at my work...Noone came to pick it up so I put it into the Charity Canister we have at work.

The biggest bill used today is the $100. If she would bring those bills in a bank, they would accept as they are legal tender. However, the bank is required to turn them over to the Federal Reserve were they are removed from circulation. You can NOT get big bills anymore from the bank.

Those $1000 bills are sought after by collectors who would gladly pay an additional 50% over face value for decent bills.

If any of them were silver or gold certificates, condition is everything and the sky is the limit on price.

Yep. A buddy of mine worked at a bank and a woman brought in two $1000 bills to deposit. The manager called the bank owner (small town) and he drove to the bank and "bought" them for 1k each. Got a helluva deal in my opinion.

...normally I'd agree...if the story were true...

the article mentions numerous times that no one. at all. except the claimed "finder" and the Billie fellow, have any record/report/evidence of said event ever occuring. No finding reported. No money or elderly woman spotted. Sad that someone would make that up, but that's the way it seems...

My thinking exactly.

Ironic how quick everyone is to kiss this lady's ass for being so honest when it is obvious the story is a lie.
