Sorry, author. Where? If you mean world-wide, there's going to have to be a load of conversion work done by someone..... Jan 18 07, 5:23 PM

I mean world-wide. And I don´t mean the value when converted to another value (f.ex US$), but the size of the figure on the note (for example 1 million, 10 million, 100 million). Jan 18 07, 6:10 PM

I am talking about high-denomination notes which were issued for normal use (circulated) in 2006. Jan 18 07, 11:37 PM

To What-A-Mess: It is true that the US had several high-denomination notes, but most of them were not for ordinary use. A hint about the world-wide situation: Yugoslavia would have been a winner in the 1990s, maybe Turkey in the 2000s until 2005. But as for 2006 I think we have to look to Asia. A country there issued a 500.000 bill in 2006. Jan 19 07, 5:25 PM

For the year 2006, the two largest numbered value banknote are the 500,000 Vietnamese Dong note and the 100,000 Zimbabwean Dollar Check note. Both of these currencies are very prone to hyperinflation (thus is why they have numerically increased so much). In all history of banknotes, the pre-WW2 German Paipermark notes were issued as high as 5x10^14 Marks (Five Hundred Trillion, short scale or 500,000,000,000,000 Paipermarks). Ironically enough, Singapore issues the $10000 Singapore Dollar note, yet is now the only note that can "buy the most of something by itself" of any notes issued worldwide. At about SG$1.00=US$1.53, the SG$10000 is worth about US$6542! Jul 01 07, 8:23 PM
