Face card 

Originating in New York in the 80-90s, a face card is a $100 dollar bill, or the highest note/bill possible in any country.
This is a reference to playing cards due to the cards with faces being the most valuable.

The term gained popularity after Big L's song Ebonics was released.
"I bucked a fag for eight face cards."
