Best Answer

Older $50 bills didn't get as much use because that was a significant amount of money 3 decades ago, so it's possible that some are still in circulation.

In any case, the government has never withdrawn any Federal Reserve Notes from circulation nor do they keep track of specific bills. Individual bills are returned for destruction only when a bank receives them and sorts out those that are too worn for further use.

Bottom line, there's no way to be 100% certain how many remain.

As of 01/2009 auction prices for a circulated 1934-C $50 bill are face value to $70 depending on how worn it is. Despite their age, most series-1934 $50 bills are not scarce. $50 was a considerable amount of money then so (relatively) high-denomination bills didn't see a lot of circulation.
