It looks like just the 500 might be bigger.

that's how Germany was too, it got really anoying when you were trying to put them in your wallet and they weren't the same size

It ain't Monopoly money! It's almost 1:1 with the good-ol' Greenback! Treat it as such...

As far as the sizes go, I am pretty sure the 100 is also larger than the 50, 20, 10. I am pretty sure the 5 is smaller than those too. I just think it has too many denominations of coins: 2, 1, .50, .20, .10, .05, .02, and .01.
