That note would be worth
if it was still in circulation today.
Now, it is replaced with
You see, we got rid of 6 zeros in Turkish Lira back in 2005.
What used to be 1000000 TL is now 1 TL. Made life much easier.
And Joe, I see what you did there with your ninja edit...

Haha.
The Vietnamese bill came up first in the search, but then I saw the Turkish bill, and I thought of you.
It's actually kind of surprising to me, as a person who has only dealt with the US and Canadian Dollars, the Euro and the Mexican Peso, how many nations actually have bills in such large denominations. In the US, we don't even have a $500 or $1,000 bill anymore (they were discontinued in the 1930s.) The $100 bill is the largest note in circulation here. We did, at one time, have a $100,000 bill, however it was used only for transactions between Federal banks, and never issued to the public.
During the 2011 "debt ceiling" crisis, the US Congress actually considered the idea of minting a $1,000,000,000,000 coin (for real), however it never took place.
