Up until the 50's, there had been $1,000 bills in circulation, and there have even been $10,000 bills. My grandfather told me that they have been removed from circulation because such a large denomination would make large drug deals very easy, they attract A LOT of attention/jealousy because it is a vast wealth in a single bill, and it would be a prime target for counterfeiting. Because of these problems the US Gov/Treasury removed them from open circulation.
