The 100 dollar bill is the highest bill currently available to the public.

Prior to 1969, the US also circulated bills with denominations of $500, $1000, $5,000 and $10,000. However all but the $500 bill were rarely used. In July of that year President Nixon ordered that banks cease distribution of all bills higher than $100 in an effort to reduce money-laundering by organized crime.

High-value bills have never been officially withdrawn or demonetized so they're technically still legal to spend at face value, but you could get a lot more for most of them as collectibles.

Also, from 1934 to 1935 the US printed a $100,000 gold certificate that was used for transactions within the government, but these were not available to the public.
