The teller at my bank had never seen a five hundred. It has Grover Cleveland's picture on it.
When I was a teller, back in the stone coin era, I had a couple of standing offers for $500s. Never collected, but a woman I worked with did - someone brought in a stack of Grandpa's sock money with two Grovers in it.
Ones, fives, twenties, and hundreds are what we need and what we use. I like to see Sam Grant on the fifty because he somehow looks like the closet alcoholic he was.

The last print run of the $500 bill was in 1945.
Quote:
"The Treasury announced on July 14, 1969, that it would quit issuing the $500, $1,000, $5,000, and $10,000 notes immediately, since the bills were so sparsely circulated. It's not like the Bureau of Engraving and Printing had to stop the presses, either; the bills hadn't seen an actual print run since 1945."
As a coin collector, I like going to banks and asking for rolls of half dollars. Occasionally you will still find some silver ones
