Howdy skomand-ga,
Wikipedia has a great article on the subject of large denomination bills
in U.S. currency.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Large_denomination_bills_in_U.S._currency
"Today, the currency of the United States, the U.S. dollar, is printed
in bills in denominations of $1, $2, $5, $10, $20, $50, and $100.
At one time, however, it also included five larger denominations.
...
$500 bill: featured a portrait of William McKinley
$1,000 bill: featured a portrait of Grover Cleveland
$5,000 bill: featured a portrait of James Madison
$10,000 bill: featured a portrait of Salmon P. Chase
$100,000 bill: featured a portrait of Woodrow Wilson
... "
The above referenced page has front and back images of the $10,000 and
$100,000 bills, and much more detail on issue and withdrawal dates, etc.
The above page also has links to images of the five bills, as shown on
the "Currency Gallery" web site.

"United States currency has not always looked like the paper money you
see in your wallet today."
