The 1934-A $500 Federal Reserve Note from the Richmond district is a stunning example of America’s high-denomination currency history. Featuring President William McKinley, these notes were originally issued for large financial transactions between banks and government institutions, rarely seen by the public.

Adding to its rarity, this note carries the Star Note designation, meaning it was printed as a replacement for a defective note. With only 36,000 standard Richmond $500s produced, Star Notes from this district are significantly scarcer, making them a true prize for collectors.

Small-size $500 Federal Reserve Notes were printed for three different series—1928, 1934, and 1934-A, across 35 different Series/District combinations. The 1934-A Richmond issue is already one of the more difficult districts to acquire, and finding a Star Note is an even greater challenge.

Although technically still legal tender, high-denomination notes like this were last printed on December 27, 1945, and officially discontinued on July 14, 1969, by the Federal Reserve System due to “lack of use.” Today, they are sought after as rare historical artifacts, treasured by collectors and investors alike.

Federal Reserve Notes are an important part of U.S. history and an excellent addition to any collection. With its remarkable scarcity and historical significance, this 1934-A Richmond $500 Star Note is a conversation piece that stands out. Secure this rarity today before it disappears into a top collection!
