Fake! I just looked online gold certificates only printed 42,000 of them. Your number is over 100,000

That is fake.

The only known example is in the Smithsonian http://americanhistory.si.edu/colle.../nmah_742353

that is obviously fake, but they did make 100k gold certs in 1934.

Obviously fake. $100,000 bills were never released to the public, they were printed only for bank to bank transactions. In the "old days" before computers, if a bank wanted to transfer $1 mil., it wasn't as easy as pressing the right key, money had to be transferred in cash. These allowed for easy transfers of large amounts between banks.

Fake...like a lot of other high denomination bills posted here lately.

Besides the one note in the Smithsonian, the BEP has an uncut sheet of specimen 100,000 bills that they sometimes display in their traveling "Billion Dollar Exhibit". It's pretty cool.

I hope that all these new people posting lately aren't making these fakes and using us as a measuring stick on how good they are....

If you look closely on the bottom, it seems that palely, it says something like "reproduction" in faint black ink.

Or maybe I'm going insane
