The $100 Bill
Benjamin Franklin · Independence Hall
📜History
“Rappers chase Benjamins. The rest of us just want to break one.”
The $100 bill — 'the Benjamin' — is the most hoarded, most counterfeited, and most internationally recognized denomination on Earth. More $100 bills exist outside the US than inside it. Puff Daddy made chasing them a lifestyle. Everyone else just tries to break one at a bodega.
