Here in Indonesia the ATMs are universally limited to dispensing no more
than 25 bills, and they only offer one type. So you can get 2,500,000 in
one withdrawal if they dispense 100,000 Rupiah bills, or 1250000 if they
dispense 50k bills.
The size of bill dispensed is often shown on a sticker (at least for newer
ATMs)
(100,000 rupiah converts to about $7 US)
