neutral  billychang: Angus, I am saying we usually say (1)dollar bill, 5 dollar bill etc. So a dollar bill is a 1 dollar bill.

  -> The custom is one thing. But I don't think this is the case. If you have been to a treasury department of an American bank, most likely you would see a frame set of dollar bills of different face values hanging somewhere on the wall.

neutral  billychang: Dollar bills means 一圆的纸币. Since this is about US I beg to differ. It is common practice to frame the first dollar one make in one's business. Also we specifiy the denomination here in the US. A (one) dollar bill, a 5 dollar bill etc
