I have one of it (original). Has it a quotation? It says this bill entitles the bearer to receive twenty spanish milled dollars or the value thereof in gold or silver. Then is says something else I can't read very well and then at the bottom it says Philadelphiea Sept. 26th 1778
Note: I cannot say authoritatively that the bill is a reproduction; however, I can say that I possess two of these bills. I can also say there are at least 30 references on the internet asking about this currency and, all of them reference serial number 270850. Even in the wildest machinations of the continental currency, they did not produce hundreds of bills with a handwritten serial number that is identical. Thus, all evidence points to this being a reproduction for some commercial purpose, perhaps a bookmark for a book on the American Revolution.

The answer is easy - ALL "one million dollar" or "one billion dollar" bills are fake. They're novelty items you can buy in a gift shop or online for a few dollars. $1000 is the largest-denomination silver certificate ever printed. $10,000 is the largest bill ever printed for circulation. $100,000 is the largest bill ever printed, but these were never circulated.
England uses pounds sterling, not dollars, and has never printed silver certificates. They are a uniquely American form of currency.
