The amount of U.S. currency currently in circulation is about $2.47 trillion as of the week of June 24, 2026, based on Federal Reserve–reported data. That figure is up slightly from the prior week and about 3.33% higher than a year earlier.

What that means

  • This refers to physical U.S. currency in circulation, not bank deposits or other forms of money. The Federal Reserve tracks this as currency held by the public domestically and internationally.
  • A monthly Federal Reserve series shows $2.4601 trillion for May 2026, which is consistent with the weekly figure around late June 2026.
  • For context, the Bureau of the Fiscal Service reported $2.373 trillion in total currency in circulation at the end of 2024, showing the continuing upward trend.

Why the number changes

Currency in circulation rises and falls based on public demand for cash, seasonal spending patterns, and international use of U.S. dollars. The Federal Reserve adjusts supply to keep enough cash available for everyday use.
