The United States uses the dollar, which is made up of 100 cents. Current circulating coins are minted in the following denominations:

1 cent (penny)

5 cents (nickel)

10 cents (dime)

25 cents (quarter)

50 cents (half dollar)

1 dollar

In the past, there were coins for 1/2, 2, 3, and 20 cents, as well as gold coins for 2.5, 5, 10, and 20 dollars.

For paper money/banknotes, there are bills for 1, 2, 5, 10, 20, 50, and 100 dollars. There used to be even larger notes at 500, 1,000, 5,000, 10,000, and 100,000 dollars, but none have been printed since the 1940s and they were withdrawn twenty years later. The $100,000 bill was only used between government offices and never saw circulation in public.
