Puzzle Description:

This is my 100th puzzle created and I've (officially) solved 1000 puzzles on this site, so it seems fitting that this be the president on the $100,000 bill - Woodrow Wilson.

The $100,000 is an odd bill, in that it was not generally issued, and printed only as a gold certificate of Series of 1934. These gold certificates (of denominations $100, $1,000, $10,000, and $100,000) were issued after the gold standard was repealed and gold was compulsorily purchased by presidential order of Franklin Roosevelt on March 9, 1933 (see United States Executive Order 6102), and thus were used only for intra-government transactions.

This took me awhile to finish, but it was very gratifying. Nice image. Cool way to celebrate your solving/creating milestones.

Thanks, everyone. I thought it was cool how they pretty much came simultaneously, though I did have to take a day off solving while I finished the puzzle.

Thank you for all the work you put in creating the puzzles. :D

Thanks. I've drifted a bit since then and while I've solved another 4000+, I've only created another 88 since. The next couple months will be very hectic for me, so I'm not likely to resume for a while.

Meanwhile, note that you can play all my old puzzles in the cache...
