The Bureau of Engraving and Printing sells them through the official government website, priced above face value as collectibles. Every note can be cut out and spent. Handing the whole sheet to a cashier is also valid, though they will silently curse you.

          It was an obvious joke. The ton of …… at the end was meant as the punch line. Meaning he’s heard of a ton .

              Based on the number of down votes, I would say everybody else was getting the joke and you weren’t
