Default greater then less then

I am trying to do this.
I have 2 cells that contain curency values in each,
I want a 3rd cell to tell me which one is greater, I need the 3rd cell to
show only the amount of the curency of the greater of the 2

Eg. a b = c
1 $200.00 $300.00 $300.00
2 $600.00 $150.00 $600.00

If you are looking for a plain greater value you can use =MAX(A1,B1)
considering one number is in cell A1 and the other one in B1
