Banknote denominations

US banknote denominations

US dollars are available in many different denominations. This includes seven denominations in notes, as seen in our pictures.

American banknotes are made with a blend of 25% linen and 75% cotton, making them a little less impervious to wear and tear than plastic money. Their distinctive green colour gives the currency the popular name the ‘greenback’.

American dollar bills come in common denominations of $1, $5, $10, $20, and $100. Less common bills include the $2 and the $50 note.
