$100,000
The US has never issued a $500,000 bill. According to the Bureau of Engraving and Printing, the largest bill ever printed for circulation was worth $10,000, and the largest printed for internal government use was $100,000.
The Mint has never made $2 bills. The Mint strikes coins. The Bureau of Engraving and Printing makes bills, and it is a separate part of the Treasury Department. The first $2 bills at the national level were U.S. Notes issued in 1862. Private banks may have issued their own at an earlier date, however.
To be technical, never, because bills aren't minted. Only coins are minted.The last $5 silver certificates were printed in the 1953-B series which was actually issued in the late 1950s.MoreUS paper money is printed by the Bureau of Engraving and Printing which is completely separate from the US Mint.
yes issued between us a and china , from the us federal reserve as a gold certificateCorrectionThere have been various high-denomination gold certificates, but the highest value Federal Reserve Note ever issued was a Series 1934 $10,000 bill. The largest US bill of any type was a special $100,000 gold certificate. Small numbers were printed in 1934 and 1935; these bills were never put into circulation but instead were used to transfer large sums between various government departments in the days before electronic funds transfers were possible.Source: United States Bureau of Engraving and Printing
The U.S. Mint has never made $10 bills. The Mint only makes coins. All bills are currently made by the Bureau of Engraving and Printing, but the Treasury Department issued bill before the BEP was formally established. The first Federal $10 bill was a so-called "demand note" printed in 1861.
Mint marks only appear on coins. US paper money is printed by the Bureau of Engraving and Printing, while coins are made by the US Mint. They're completely separate operations. When silver certificates were issued the BEP had only one facility, in Washington DC. Any small-size bill you may have was printed at that location.
To clear things up, only coins have mint marks. US paper money is printed by the Bureau of Engraving and Printing rather than the Mint. There are only two printing facilities, one in Washington and the other in Fort Worth. Bills printed at the latter facility have a tiny "FW" next to one of the plate-position numbers on the obverse. In general there is little difference in value between bills issued by the two locations.
Bills are printed by the Bureau of Engraving and Printing, not by the Mint. The Mint only makes coins. $2 bills have been issued for many different years, but in quantities much smaller than other denominations. The list of years is quite long so rather than try to reproduce it here, please see the Related Link for dates and values.
The largest denomination of currency ever printed by the Bureau of Engraving and Printing (BEP) was the $100,000 Series 1934 Gold Certificate featuring the portrait of President Wilson. These notes were printed from December 18, 1934 through January 9, 1935 and were issued by the Treasurer of the United States to Federal Reserve Banks only against an equal amount of gold bullion held by the Treasury Department. The notes were used only for official transactions between Federal Reserve Banks and were not circulated among the general public.
No dollar bills are minted in the US. The Mint only makes coins. Bills are printed by the Bureau of Engraving and Printing. The highest denomination bill currently issued is $100. Until 1945 the largest bill printed for circulation was $10,000 but these weren't widely used. In 1934 and 1935 the BEP made special $100,000 bills that were used for transferring money between Federal Reserve banks. These bills were never put into general circulation and most were later destroyed. At least one was saved and is on display in the Smithsonian.
As of 07/2014, retail values in average condition are $25 to $35. Uncirculated, that jumps to $150. To clarify things, the bills aren't actually printed in the Federal Reserve district that issued them. They're printed by the Bureau of Engraving and Printing in Washington (and since 1991, Fort Worth) with the name and letter of the issuing district added.
