My guess is that for all money that is disposed of, new money is printed. However, I am not sure of that. Mark Hi Sarah,

I actually do not know how much a 100 dollar bill weighs, I read that on a did you know fact page. I suppose I am just taking their word for it : ) I'm sure, with an Internet search, you could find the actual weight; and yes, that is a lot of cash : ) Mark Hi AK,
