    The $100,000 Gold Certificate was produced for 3 weeks by the Treasury between December 18, 1934 and January 9, 1935, specifically for the purpose of transfering funds between the Federal Reserve banks. The bills were never intended for, or released into, general circulation. According to the The Bureau of Engraving and Printing (BEP), a collector could not legally possess one (all known remaining $100,000 notes are now in museums).

    The bill your grandpa has is most likely a replica, which are widely available, and have no intrinsic or collector value. I found a bunch of them selling on Ebay for between 12-15 Dollars.

    It's a fake. $100k bills were never in circulation.
    "Numerous fake large denominations of US currency have been created by various individuals and organizations, including a one million dollar bill."
