"The Bureau of Engraving and Printing (BEP) produced 649,600,000 U.S. notes in February of 2008 worth a total of $13,779,200,000. ... Spread across the 29 days in February and counting weekends and holidays, that averages to nearly 22.5 million notes per day with a face value of approximately $475 million." -
"During fiscal year 2007, [BEP] produced approximately 38 million notes a day with a face value of approximately $750 million." --From the U.S. Treasury itself at treas.gov
I believe the above sources are indicating that money is printed over the course of a 29 day period, rather than every day of the year. If this is the case, it makes the per-day figure appear much higher than if it were printed throughout the year, as might be assumed if not otherwise noted. If the BEP printed money 365 days in a year, then the amount printed would be approximately $37.75 million per day in 2008.

ANSWER:During the 1820's the government of the United States printed currency, as it does today. It was good, and was accepted in every state.But, with the American Civil War, the United State continued to print currency, but, the Confederate States of America decided to print their own currency. This being the fact, that they were no longer part of the Union.However, over a period of time, the Confederate currency would not be worth the paper it was printed on, and United States currency would be hard to come by in the South.

In the United States, there are three forms for monetary systems. The first of course is barter. Barter which means to exchange one property for another. Which has been around since the dawn of mankind. The idea of this system is that one only need a property that someone else needs and exchanges it for the property they need. This system has some advantages but also some unfair practices. (Second) As prescribed in the United States Constitution Section Eight, under The Power of Congress. It states, they enumerated "to coin Money, and regulate the value thereof...." Which created the Coin Act of 1792. Which created the famed United States Mint. And are the only kind of currency protected by the United States Constitution. (Third) The Federal Reserve Notes, The United States paper currency. It is authorized by Section 411 of Title 12 of the United States Code. The Federal Reserve Notes are printed, regulated, and issued by The United States Bureau of Engraving and Printing (BEP). They are both under the control of United States Department of the Treasury. However, the only ones that can change the value of coinage is Congress. The paper money, as far as I know it, should be regulated by health of the economy and ones nation. In some cases this is not true. If this is the case then the paper money is a form of fiat currency. There is some argument that the United States paper money is a form of fiat currency. Let you be your own judge. Fiat currency simply means, government regulated currency or a currency not backed by precious material such as gold or silver. When United States President Franklin D. Roosevelt, sign into law an Executive Order, the Executive Order 6102 in 1933 effectively removing the United States Dollar from what was once called the Gold Standard. ***Information from, Wikipedia.

The power to coin money is an expressed power. This is a power that is provided to Congress in Article 1, Section 8 of the US Constitution.
There are many reasons, but the most compelling reason is that if states could print their own currency there would be chaos with not only interstate trade, but also international trade. This is why 16 countries in Europe use a common currency - the Euro.
No, the smallest paper money denomination was the 3 cent fractional currency note printed during the civil war because of a shortage of coins.
