I think I had a 1 dollar bill years ago and spent it but I could be wrong on that as I could be confusing with an old store certificate bill which became pseudo currency in Canada.I bet it's been at least 40 years since the last one was found in circulation. Your chances of finding one are about the same as getting a 1909-S VDB cent in change.
I think it's "possible" to find a one dollar bill anything higher than that is near impossible as print runs were lower and the money was pulled from circulation more than one dollar bills. I haven't crossed the border since the pandemic but living near the border when I crossed the border and broke a larger bill I was shocked at how many beat to hell singles were in circulation. I recall getting one and a Canadian bank refused to take the bill.
I know this you could never find a high grade 1 dollar bill unless a near blind senior spent it or something.
