I have been pushing for President Trump to order the printing of $500 and $1000 bills.

A $100 bill to day is worth about the same as a $10 in 1965.

A $1000 bill today would be about the same value as a $100 bill was in 1965.

It would make commerce easier, and back away from the total control a central bank digital currency would make possible.

I want my one-trillion-dollar coin.

A $10 silver certificate would need to be reissued as a $300 FRN at the current market price of silver. So it’s $300 that that 1965 tender is worth today, not $100.

A $10 1928 gold certificate would need to be reissued as a $1600 FRN at the current world price of gold.

Your 1928 dollar is worth less than a penny. Your 1965 dollar is worth about 1/3 of a cent.

I am in favor of the $500 dollar bill—But Not with Trump’s Face. I believe only dead presidents can be used—Maybe Ronald Reagan? I think we need a five dollar coin—the size of an old 50 cent piece. To be used in vending machines. Who should be on the coin? Maybe Trump after he has gone to his reward?
