The $500 Federal Reserve note first appeared in 1918, when paper currency was still designed in a large format. John Marshall graced the first design.

When the Treasury gave all of its paper currency a design makeover in 1928, the $500 was included and featured William McKinley. Other large denominations that are no longer printed include $1000, $5000, and $10000.
