from a month earlier, according to data from the National Association of
Realtors.

Circulation of high-denomination bills was halted in 1969 by executive order
of President Richard Nixon, in an effort to combat organized crime. The
Federal Reserve began taking high-denomination bills out of circulation that
year; as of May 30, 2009, there were only 336 of the $10,000 bills in
circulation; 342 remaining $5,000 bills; and 165,372 $1,000 bills still
being used.[2] Due to their rarity, collectors will pay considerably more
