Day 119 - Presidential Money

All money deposited in this bin goes to the
 Ronald McDonald House Charities

That's the money bin at my neighborhood McDonald's where, on President's Day, I put in an Abraham Lincoln, a Thomas Jefferson, a Franklin Roosevelt, a George Washington, and a John Kennedy.  No, I didn't put in a James Madison ($5,000 bill) nor an Andrew Jackson ($10,000 bill.)  And I couldn't get my hands on a Woodrow Wilson ($100,000 bill), mainly because it was never used in general circulation.  It was a currency note used between 1934 and 1935 to transfer money between government departments.
