== For the 1934 series, President William McKinley is on the front of the $500 bill. The back has the number 500 surrounded by a scrollwork design.

For the 1918 series, Chief Justice John Marshall is on the front, and the back has a vignette of deSoto discovering the Mississippi in 1541 The last official series date for printing of a $500 bill by the US was 1934. However bills with that date continued to be made up till 1945. Distribution of all bills with denominations higher than $100 was stopped in 1969, as a way to make it more difficult for organized crime to move large amounts of money without being caught.
