The US made 100,000 dollar bills, but none of these were ever in circulation.
They were made to be used between Federal Reserve Banks.
500000 of them.
There aren't any statistics kept re how many bills of a specific denomination are in circulation at any one time. It would be impossible to account for all of the bills that may have been lost, stolen, shipped outside of the U.S. (particularly true for 100s), and so on.
No one keeps exact track of the number of $2 bills in circulation from various counties. In the US the BEP estimates there are over 500 million American $2 bills in circulation but it's not physically possible to know how many have been lost / damaged / hidden...
100000
10,000 $1's
None. And never have been. The $100,000 bill was intended only to be transferred between Federal Reserve centers and not circulated.
Older dollar bills are indeed still in circulation. US bills aren't removed from circulation until they wear out.
Yes, Singapore uses them.
Woodrow Wilson. Only a few of these bills were printed and they were never put into public circulation. They were used only for making payments within the US government.
Sources differ but the most commonly quoted number is 42,000, of which only about two dozen were retained. The bills were never put into general circulation and were only used for transactions between government departments.
Yes, $5. There will be hundreds of millions of them in circulation after a while.
500000 of them.
Old bills are taken out of circulation by central banks and replaced with new bills. This process is called demonetization. Old bills are typically collected by banks and then destroyed either by shredding or burning to prevent them from re-entering circulation.
??? The US has NEVER formally removed any coins or bills from circulation except those backed by gold. You should be able to find oceans of pre-2001 coins in circulation, and a significant number of bills as well.
Woodrow Wilson
Yes. The US has never withdrawn or demonetized any bills except for gold certificates. 1995 and 1999 bills are sufficiently new that some of them remain in circulation.
Older $50 bills didn't get as much use because that was a significant amount of money 3 decades ago, so it's possible that some are still in circulation. In any case, the government has never withdrawn any Federal Reserve Notes from circulation nor do they keep track of specific bills. Individual bills are returned for destruction only when a bank receives them and sorts out those that are too worn for further use. Bottom line, there's no way to be 100% certain how many remain.
