    Awe the king cola iatola of fiat currencies! The mighty five thousand dollar Federal Reserve Note! Last I checked, the dang thing is worth more than the 10,000 note.
    Not is all lost fellows, we'll all have em soon enough...

    Did you guys ever hear the story of the wheel barrel full of currency? Long story short, lady leaves wheel barrel out front of shop full of marks in the 20's to buy a loaf of bread, and dang it someone dumped the money on the ground and ran off with the wheel barrel, cause it was worth ten times more than the money it carried...

    BTW: The centering on the back is sooo distracting that even if I was super rich I would pass at that price! Just imagine, you could get all three Educational Notes, a few 1918's, and maybe a tombstone in UNC for that price!!!

    Sure, that happened in Germany during thier hyperinflation. I have a 100 million mark note from that time period. You could use one of those to buy a match to burn the rest of them.. :)

    Sure, I'll buy it. Um...I only have two Woodrow Wilson $100,000 bills on me, can someone break the other one for me? :devil:

    Seriously though, why do $5,000 and $10,000 FRNs cost so much? I mean, I would buy myself one of each if $5,000s were like $8,000 or so and if $10,000s were like $15,000 or so. But if it is rarity, I can understand the price, seeing as last I read, there were only 300 something $10,000 bills left in existance and only 200 something $5,000s. So yes, $5,000s should be worth way more than $10,000s. I..uh, think....
