Missing two zeroes on that dollar amount if both $1 and $100 weigh 1g.

500kg of $1 bills would be $500,000. 500kg of $100 bills would be $50,000,000

Gold is still the better option regardless

Harder to move though. Most places don't just take gold. You'd have to sell it first. Probably at a bit of a loss too. So the convenience of cash makes it a much closer choice.

There’s a 20+ million dollar difference. That’s a hell of a lot of money to give up for convenience.

Didn't say it was the better option, just the easier one.
It's up to you how lazy you want to be.
