Only if you are a collector.
The highest denomination printed in just about forever is $100.
Bills larger than $100 were last printed in 1945, and were officially discontinued in 1969. They're still legal tender, so they must be accepted as payment of a debt, but that doesn't mean a store needs to accept them for a purchase. Plus, if you have one, it's worth more to a collector. The lowest priced one on ebay is this piece of crap:
and there's a bid for $1,295.00 on it. The ones that appear in nice shape have bids of hundreds of dollars more.
$15 bill

One of them for $2300 has a crease in it. Like somebody carried it around in his wallet in 1935. That was like $10k now.
I'm older, so I did in fact hold a $1,000 once.

That's a Rudy Ray Moore joke.
"There was these two hippies making counterfeit money, but instead of makin 20 dollar bills they was making 18 dollar bills instead. So when they saw that they asked themselves what we gonna do? One of them hippies say to the otha, 'I got an idea. We gonna take them down to the liquor store. Those colored cats will take anything.' When they got there they ask this one brotha ' hey man can you change these 18 dolla bills?' That brotha say to them hippies 'hell yeah, how y'all want it whupped up -- two nines, three sixes or six threes!'
I ain't lyin'!"
Held a $100,000 bill at a special display when I was a kid.
a $500 CD when those were still paper. I think all contracts like that are electronic only now
A friend has the walls of a half bath off her living room covered with about eight grand in two dollar bills. She also has a number of framed photos (none real) of high denomination paper currency in a hallway. The twos were her idea & some of the framed photos were left over from a former owner of the townhouse with some others commissioned to fill the space.
Gold (plated) bidet in the master bedroom the former owner took the gold plated john.

No joke
I've held about $100 in $2 bills, does that count for anything?
Unfortunately, like most people the $100 is the largest denomination bill I've held in my hand. But I did have 200 of them in my hand at one time and didn't spend it all on drugs, so that must be rare.

What? Seriously? Eight grand worth of wall paper in the form of two dollars bills? How and why? Am I understanding this right?
I own a $500 bill in halfway decent condition. I is probably worth about $750-$800 if I were to sell it. That is the largest bill I have ever held.
SINCE NOBODY HAS STATED IT YET, HERE IS THE MOST COMMON AND BORING ANSWER....
100 DOLLAR BILL
I think I held a $10,000 bill during an elementary school field trip to a bank. Although those are apparently quite rare, so maybe I'm remembering wrong and it was a $1000 bill.
This is a dumb question. 99% of the answers will be $100 bill.
I sold my car and got a bank check for $6500. That is probably the largest form of currency I've held.
Not exactly an answer to the question, but whenn I worked at a bank branch I held a $100,000 bag in each hand (all $20s). $200K in hand, had half a mind to make a run for it!
That's Great!!!!
