Washington was a very great man, but today, he is worth only a dollar at the bank. Lincoln will get you five dollars and Grant will get you fifty, but the real money is with some of the less famous American presidents. The $100 bill is currently the largest bill being printed and circulated, but there used to be much larger bills. The US Treasury stopped production of them, but if you can still find one of these bills, they can be used as legal tender, though they may be worth more as a museum piece or an artifact to a currency collector! William McKinley, an assasinated president, is worth $500. You'll find heavy set Grover Cleveland on the $1000 bill. James Madison, Dolley's sweetheart, is on the $5000 bill. But towering above all, in his lofty position, is Woodrow Wilson, whose orange $100,000 bill is a real collector's prize. These bills were printed in 1934 and 1935. They were not circulated among the public. In fact, they were illegal for individuals to own! Instead, they were used by the Federal Reserve Bank, and discontinued after WWII.  Only 42,000 of the bills were ever printed, and today, there are no known examples outside of museums. But be watching, lest one be found in Great Grandma's dresser drawer!
