It's actually still legal tender at face value, but all large denomination bills were withdrawn from circulation in 1969, and none had been printed since 1945. Fewer than 400 of them are known to still exist, and are worth far more to collectors.

You can, but they haven't been printed since the 1940s, and were withdrawn from circulation in the 1960s. They're still legal tender at face value, but worth considerably more to collectors.

What is the value of a US 5000 dollar bill?

$5000 bills were printed in limited quantities over a period of about 80 years, so it's not possible to provide a specific estimate without knowing its date. In any case, assuming your bill is genuine its collector value could be at least 3 times its face value and possibly more, so it should be examined in person by a reputable dealer or appraiser.
