$500 Piece of History

A remarkable example of historic American currency, this 1934 $500 Federal Reserve Note features the portrait of President William McKinley, the 25th President of the United States. Once an important denomination for high-value banking transactions, the $500 bill has long since disappeared from everyday circulation, making surviving examples highly sought after by collectors. Alongside the $1,000 note, it represents a fascinating chapter in American financial history when denominations far exceeding today's $100 bill were regularly issued.

Issued by the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago, this example features the Julian-Morgenthau signature combination and the desirable dark green seal variety. Most notably, the note has earned an impressive PMG 64 EPQ Choice Uncirculated grade, with the coveted Exceptional Paper Quality (EPQ) designation recognizing its original paper characteristics. This exceptional grade places the note in a particularly desirable category for collectors seeking high-quality examples of discontinued American currency.

Beautifully preserved with outstanding visual appeal, this $500 note combines historical significance, scarcity, and remarkable condition. Professionally authenticated, graded, and encapsulated by PMG, it represents an excellent opportunity to acquire a premium example of one of America's most recognizable high-denomination banknotes. A standout addition to any advanced currency or historical memorabilia collection.
