What is the most valuable currency note on Earth? How many do you need to reach to the moon?

Asked by RedDeerGuy1 (24944points) June 25th, 2021

Not the African trillion dollars note, or Post WWII Hungary printed 100 Quintillion Dollar notes. that can’t pay for a loaf of bread, but an actual note that is worth the most when converted into American or North American bills.

For example Canada used to have a $1,000 note which would be worth $750 in American.

What is the highest legal tender note overall for each country? That has the most value between them?

I found in a quick Wikipedia search that America has a $10,000 note that is still legal tender. Just not printed anymore. Can anyone beat that?

I don’t think I’ve heard of a note that had actual value more than $10,000 USD.

As far as reaching the moon, would that be with them stretched end-to-end ?
Or does this ask how many of these big bills are needed to pay for a trip?

@dabbler laying flat. Also your second question is awesome. Include that if you want.

Bank of England Titan. Face value £100,000,000. (It’s legal tender but not actually in circulation. They’re only printed to get round some old laws regarding the Bank of Scotland and Bank of Ireland printing their own notes).

The cost of a trip to the moon seems to depend on whether or not you land or not but (assuming the flights run at today’s advertised costs) you’d need between 2 and 8.

Measure the currency and divide it into the distance to the moon. That’ll tell you how many it takes.

I’m coming up with around $35000000000000000. 15 billion inches to the moon, divided by 0.0043 inches per bill, times $10000.
