Amen. I remember seeing $500 and $1000 notes as a kid, although I never owned one. I would like $500 denomination bills, for the reason you stated....it's a pain to carry a stack of C notes when you're going to buy something slightly expensive for cash.

The $500 note is illegal thanks to our world-famous War on Drugs. Most international traffickers don't use cash anyway these day. Bearer bonds are the way to go. A $250 note with Reagan would be nice unique additon!
