What s the value of a 1952 US 5 dollar silver certificate?
Please check again and post a new question. The U.S. didn't print any bills with those dates.
Also include whether there is a small letter under the date. The bill's serial number isn't needed to ID it, though.
Is there a US 50000 dollar bill?
No. The largest circulating denomination ever printed was $10,000. A small number of $100,000 bills were printed for use in transactions between government departments but these were never put into circulation.
Where can you sell a 100 dollar bill?
First you need to know if the bill is actually worth more than face value. Until recently, 100s didn't circulate a lot so there are many older ones that are still available in nearly-new condition. All $100 Federal Reserve notes dated 1969 and later are only worth face value, and those going back to the 1934 series are worth a premium only if they're in slightly-worn or better shape. However 1966-dated notes with red seals can command a significant premium, so you see there are a number of factors involved.
If your bill looks like it might be worth more than face value you could try selling it on eBay or to a currency dealer. You'll get more on eBay but at the cost of some risk and hassle. A dealer will pay less, but it'll be a one-and-done transaction.
What is the highest US dollar note?
If my history serves me right $20,000 was the highest bill ever in circulation, but it was taken out because too much wealth could be contained in a small space which facilitated the Prohibition - so it was removed and $100 became the biggest bill that is used.
Correction and clarificationThere never was a $20,000 bill and large denominations weren't eliminated due to Prohibition. The largest circulating bill was $10,000, although a small number of special $100,000 bills were printed during the 1930s for use inside the government.Printing of large bills ($500 and above) ended in 1945 due to lack of use. In 1969 President Nixon issued an order discontinuing their distribution through the banking system as a way of com batting money laundering by organized crime. In spite of the possible current usefulness of larger denominations due to inflation, the same concern about money laundering now applies to terrorists and drug dealers so there is little chance that anything larger than a $100 bill will be printed in the foreseeable future.
What is the value of a 1934 A US 2 dollar silver certificate?
Please check again and post a new question. No $2 bills were printed with the 1934 series date, and the last $2 silver certificates were dated 1899.
Is there a 1 millon dollar bill?
There's a novelty item that LOOKS like a $1M bill, but the largest denomination of REAL money currently printed in the U.S. is $100. Any U.S. $1,000,000 bills you see are worth about as much as the paper they're printed on.
MoreToday, the currency of the United States, the U.S. dollar, is printed in bills in denominations of $1, $2, $5, $10, $20, $50, and $100.At one time, however, it also included five larger denominations. High-denomination currency was prevalent from the very beginning of U.S. Government issue (1861). $500, $1,000, and $5,000 interest bearing notes were issued in 1861, and $10,000 gold certificates arrived in 1865. There are many different designs and types of high-denomination notes.
The high-denomination bills were issued in a small size in 1929, along with the $1 through $100 denominations. Their designs were as follows:
* The $500 bill featured a portrait of William McKinley
* The $1,000 bill featured a portrait of Grover Cleveland
* The $5,000 bill featured a portrait of James Madison
* The $10,000 bill featured a portrait of Salmon P. Chase
* The $100,000 bill featured a portrait of Woodrow Wilson
The reverse designs featured abstract scrollwork with ornate denomination identifiers. All were printed in green, except for the $100,000. The $100,000 is an odd bill, in that it was not generally issued, and printed only as a gold certificate of Series of 1934. These gold certificates (of denominations $100, $1,000, $10,000, and $100,000) were issued after the gold standard was repealed and gold was compulsorily redeemed by presidential order of Franklin Roosevelt on March 9, 1933 (see United States Executive Order 6102), and thus were only used for intra-government transactions. They are printed in orange on the back, and are illegal to own. All known pieces are in government museums. This series was discontinued in 1940. The other bills are printed in black and green.
Printing of other high-denomination bills was discontinued in 1945, but the bills continued in use until 1969, when circulation of high-denomination bills was halted in 1969 by executive order of President Richard Nixon, in an effort to combat organized crime. $5,000 and $10,000 bills had effectively disappeared well before then: there are only about 200 $5,000 and 300 $10,000 bills known, of all series since 1861. Most of the $10,000 bills are due to the preservation of 100 ($1,000,000) of them by Benny Binion, the owner of Binion's Horseshoe casino in Nevada. For many years, they were displayed in a glass case in the casino. The case is no longer there, and the bills were sold to collectors.
The introduction of the electronic money system has made large-scale cash transactions obsolete; when combined with concerns about counterfeiting and the use of cash in unlawful activities such as the illegal drug trade, it is unlikely that the U.S. government will re-issue large denomination currency in the near future.
Fake denominationsOther denominations of bills have been created by individuals as practical jokes or as genuine attempts at counterfeiting. In 2001, a man bought a sundae at a Dairy Queen with a $200 bill (with George W. Bush on it) and received $198 in change. In September 2003, an unknown individual in North Carolina used a $200 bill (with George W. Bush's likeness on it) at a Food Lion to purchase $150 in groceries. The cashier obligingly cashed the fake bill and presented the perpetrator with $50 in change.In March 2004, Alice Regina Pike attempted to use a $1,000,000 bill with a picture of the Statue of Liberty on the front to purchase $1671.55 in goods from a Wal-Mart in Covington, Georgia, for which she was then arrested.
Though not actually meant to be used as actual legal tender, Christian evangelist Ray Comfort's ministry, Living Waters Publications, produces another fake $1,000,000 bill, which is in reality a Christian gospel tract.
Various $3 bills have been released, generally poking fun at politicians or celebrities such as Bill Clinton, Michael Jackson, or Hillary Clinton; this likely stems from the American idiom "queer as a three-dollar bill."

What would make a dollar bill signed by Joseph Barr valuable?
"Barr notes" are assumed to be more valuable than others because Joseph Barr only served as Treasury Secretary for about a month at the end of the Johnson Administration. However nearly half a billion bills with his signature were printed so they only command a slight premium over others from the same era. As of 02/2009 U.S. Currency Auctions lists a fair market value of an uncirculated Barr note at only $2.00. Many sellers on eBay are under the mistaken impression that these bills are rare - or are trying to play off others' lack of knowledge - and are attempting to charge highly inflated prices.

What is the value of a US 2 dollar bill serial number B 59310633 A?
You provided the serial number of the bill, which doesn't affect its value, but didn't give the date or series letter, which do.
If your bill is dated 1976 or later it's only worth face value. If it's older, please post a new question with the bill's date and whether there is a small letter right next to the date. You don't need to re-copy the serial number.
A bill's serial number is just a counter so including it in a question generally doesn't help to identify it.
