<p>[QUOTE=&quot;harley bissell, post: 5003169, member: 88212&quot;]There were one million dollar gold notes issued to pay for the GADSDEN PURCHASE from mexico. All but one were redeemed almost 180 years ago. Each one was sealed in a lead tube for protection. Fakes are common and easy to spot since the cheap ones are printed only on one side. Better fakes would be assumed. All bills higher than $100 were demonetized inside the US. Some are still accepted from overseas banks. The idea that someone in the Phillipines who could take a genuine note to his local bank but wants to sell it to an Americsn who can not spend it is humorous.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
