With absolutely NO suggestion that you are a fraudster, you may be interested in this, from the FRB New York ‘Fraud Alert’ archives (my emphasis in bold):
Discovered 1930s Notes and Bonds
July 2005
The Federal Reserve is aware of several scams involving high denomination Federal Reserve notes and bonds, often in denominations of 100 million or 500 million dollars, dating back to the 1930s, usually 1934. In each of these schemes, fraudulent instruments are claimed to be part of a long-lost supply of recently discovered Federal Reserve notes or bonds.
Fraudsters often falsely claim that the purported Federal Reserve notes or bonds that they hold are somehow very special and are not known to the public because they are so secret. Fraudsters have attempted to sell these worthless instruments, or to redeem or exchange them at banks and other financial institutions, or to secure loans or obtain lines of credit using the fictitious instruments as collateral.
The Federal Reserve has never issued any bonds or notes with coupons attached. The Federal Reserve Bank of New York is not aware of any currency or debt stockpile of large denomination Federal Reserve notes from the 1930s and warns that any institution that pays out on such a claim does so at its own risk.
It should also be noted that the largest denomination of currency ever printed by the Bureau of Engraving and Printing was the $100,000 Series 1934 Gold Certificate featuring the portrait of President Wilson. These notes were printed from December 18, 1934, through January 9, 1935, and were issued by the Treasurer of the United States to Federal Reserve Banks only against an equal amount of gold bullion held by the Treasury Department. The notes were used only for official transactions between Federal Reserve Banks and were not circulated among the general public.

See above warning from the Federal Reserve (Post #3):
- The Federal Reserve has never issued any bonds or notes with coupons attached.
- The largest denomination of currency ever printed by the Bureau of Engraving and Printing was $100,000 (for internal use by Federal Reserve Banks).
- They are aware of fakes with higher denominations, mostly with dates from the 1930s and especially for the 1934 series.
Where did you get these from and what's the back story?

Nope, just fakes. The gold chest was a nice touch though.

It's pretty. There are more zeroes in "five billion" as written in the USA: $5,000,000,000
I'm afraid your notes are only worth $500 million ($500,000,000) each. Back to the printing press.

Another error is look at the one picture where you can (barely) make out the serial numbers on the coupons (for lack of a better descriptor), they are all the same, another give away. We see that on ebay with machined knock off goods, the serial numbers don't change on the forgeries.
I noticed that there's a purposeful intent to show they're from an Eastern country, probably to up the confidence game as in hoping someone will think "he's Asian, he must not know what they are and worth so i can get them at a deal".

I'm sure he'll sell it for that, he probably has a few hundred of them. I wouldn't doubt if they are on Alibaba too.

I thought the US had all the ginormous denomination certificates shipped to the Philippines for safe keeping? Wonder where he found his?

125 Billion would make you, at the time, the richest person in the world, today at face value, you'd still be the forth richest in the world just ahead of Bill Gates at 124 Billion net worth.
Possibly Really Printed at the U.S. Mint in order To Defraud The Philippians Government, in the Early 40's
and Once the Transition took Place, Declared Fake & Illegal so the U.S. would not need to Keep their Promises to Who ever was their Target.
And since no One can argue with the CIA, The FBI, The FRB & and all those other Letter Groups EIEIO !
They can be Nothing but trouble to Own and try to Pass.
I see no other Explanation for Anyone printing up Sooo Many Impossible Denomination U.S. Notes.
Plus Think about it. There is absolutely No Reason to Charge someone with Counterfeiting a note so large, It doesn't Exist.
unless your hiding something.
So if your thinking to Buy; Don't ! Unless your Buying as A private Curio

Wow that looks a lot like the monies my nigerian diamond heiress has promised to share with me when I help her get to the states. She is gorgeous and i think I'm required to marry her. Cant wait to meet her. I already sent her my bank info so she can start depositing all her off shore accounts for me. I hope someone hasn't stolen her late grandfathers bonds..
