Not currently, but in the past the US issued large-size bills in denominations of $500, $1,000, $5,000 and $10,000. There were also a few special $100,000 bills printed for use within the government but these never circulated.

Despite many internet legends to the contrary, there has NEVER, EVER been a US $1 million bill. Novelty shops sell made-up ones for a few bucks and occasionally people are duped into thinking they're real.

Printing of large-denomination bills ended in 1945 due to low demand. In 1969 President Nixon issued an order stopping distribution of any that remained, in an effort to stop their use in money laundering and other criminal activities.

High-value bills were never officially withdrawn so technically you could still spend one but it wouldn't make a lot of sense - they're worth much more to collectors.

Even though some people speculate about new high-denomination bills ($200 and $500 are most often mentioned) the ubiquitous use of credit cards and e-transfers means that the government is very unlikely to print anything new in the foreseeable future.

Is there anything larger than a hundred dollar bill?

Yes, there are larger denominations of currency than a hundred dollar bill, such as the $500, $1,000, $5,000, and $10,000 bills that were issued in the United States but are no longer in circulation.

Is a gold plated hundred dollar bill legal tender?

A gold-plated hundred dollar bill is not considered legal tender. While the bill itself is legal currency, the addition of gold plating alters its original form and could lead to it being treated as a novelty item rather than official currency. To be legal tender, it must remain in its original condition issued by the U.S. Treasury.
