Best Answer

That would be the Bureau of Engraving and Printing, which is part of the Treasury Department. see moneyfactory.com for their website.

Despite popular mythology, the US Mint does not produce paper money, only coins. The two operations are completely separate both administratively and physically.

How many us dollars are printed per day?

How much currency is printed in the United States on a daily bases? The Federal Reserve prints about $36,500,000. daily. What is included? The US has to print currency to replace old & damaged notes. When daily Bank to Bank Transfers can not be meant, extra currency is printed. Under the supervision of the Secret Service, the Military is used to transport currency abroad.

In the United States, the Federal Government prints about $36,500,000 notes per day, which is equal to about $500,000,000.00 per day. Most of it is replacement of old/worn notes [so they say]. Plus you know they want all the older money that stated on the front left side that this note can be turned in to any Federal Reserve Bank for Lawful Money, meaning you could get paid in Gold.... We were taken off the Gold Standard during the Nixon Administration so don't bother taking those old bills in thinking your gonna get some gold coins. All they'll do is take those bills & exchange them with newer bills that read that this Note is good for all debts both Public & Private....
