Once as I was putting it into my laptop bag on at the tray because I forgot to pack it earlier. "Sir may I see that? <"Why?"> "That's appear to be a lot of money. Is it over $10,000?"

The second time for a reason still not apparent to me as it was the ONLY item in the only pocket they inspected.

YMMV I suppose. <sigh>
That's because now TSO's are self appointed Customs agents, even when flying domestically.
