Benny Binion arrived in Las Vegas with $2 million in cash. He opened the Horseshoe
Casino in 1951 and quickly became the talk of the town. Binion’s Million Dollar
Collection was one of the city’s most popular tourist attractions for decades.
North American Certified Trading is proud to offer an extremely limited number of pedigreed
$10,000 bills from the famed Binion Million Dollar Collection.

Over five million tourists had their pictures taken with Benny Binion’s Million Dollar Collection, a display
of 100 $10,000 bills inside an inverted horseshoe. When the casino’s management changed five years ago, the
landmark collection was dismantled and dispersed to eager collectors.
North American Certified Trading has acquired a very limited number of these rare and desirable $10,000
notes, each certified and pedigreed to Binion’s Million Dollar Collection. We invite you to call NACT toll-free
today to discuss the availability and price of these legendary notes.
The King of U.S. Currency
Although outlawed by the Constitution, our nation’s first paper money was issued during the financial
emergency of the Civil War. In the more than 140 years since, currency notes ranging from $1 to $10,000 have
been printed for public use. That makes the $10,000 note – equal in face value to 10 1,000-coin bags of Morgan
silver dollars or 500 $20 gold coins – the highest denomination ever printed for public use in the United
States. (A $100,000 bill was printed exclusively for use within the Federal Reserve System.)
The $10,000 denomination has another distinction: it was never issued for everyday circulation. It
was created by the government so banks and financial clearinghouses could settle large cash transactions. For
many years now, it has been Treasury Department policy not to print any denomination above $100. The Treasury
also destroys all notes it receives with face values above $100.
$10,000 bills were issued between 1863 and 1934. Treasury records acknowledge a maximum of 340
$10,000 bills remain outstanding. Official Treasury records indicate that 11,520 Series 1934 $10,000 bills
were printed for the New York Federal Reserve, with an unknown number actually delivered. Only 100 of these
high denomination notes are pedigreed to Binion’s Million Dollar Collection.
Given the fragile nature of paper money, and the typical handling of high-denomination notes, Binion
$10,000 notes are in superior condition.
Royalty On Many Levels
Today’s numismatic marketplace is increasingly focused on rarity, condition and pedigree. That’s doubly
true among currency collectors, who know how easily paper money is smudged, soiled, folded, wrinkled, bent,
stapled, torn, and eventually destroyed.
The Binion $10,000 bills are irresistible to advanced collectors on multiple levels. Only 100 exist
and examples are rarely offered for sale. Their condition is superlative. Finally, their pedigree is traceable directly
back to the world-famous Million Dollar Collection. That’s why the Binion $10,000 notes are called the
Kings of U.S. Currency and why they are in such high demand!
Legal for U.S. Citizens to Own
As an owner of a prestigious Binion $10,000 bill, you’ll enthrall your hard to impress friends with the note’s
great rarity and intoxicating history. And you’ll impress them when you identify the major parts of the design: the
portrait of Salmon P. Chase (Governor of Ohio, Lincoln’s Secretary of the Treasury, and Chief Justice of the
Supreme Court), the large "B" as the code letter for the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, and the signatures of
William Alexander Julian as Treasurer and Henry Morgenthau, Jr. as Secretary of the Treasury. And you’re
sure to mention your note’s extra low serial number.
Take advantage of this opportunity to be the one collector in a million who can own a $10,000 note from
the famous Binion Million Dollar Collection. With an extremely limited number of notes available, North
American Certified Trading will reserve the lowest serial numbers for the earliest reservations. Call toll-free today
to discuss the availability and price for these Kings of U.S. Currency.
