Would njas want the following sequence, because it was in the answer to a
math puzzle in a syndicated newspaper column, or would he consider it one of
the historical/social non-Math annoyances?  Or too USA-centric, and likely
to produce a flock of analogues from other nations?

1,2,5,10,20,50,100,500,1000,5000,10000,100000
The only currency denominations, in dollars, ever
produced by the U.S. Treasury Department.
As Jeff and Lynn Gorbiski pointed out ["Ask Marilyn",
Marilyn Vos Savant, syndicated column, 10 Dec 2006]
the sum of this set is $116,688.
Nonnegative, Finite, Full.
