There were notes available to the public up to $10,000, and they are still legal tender. However, all notes above $100 are no longer printed and are withdrawn from circulation if they arrive at a Federal Reserve Bank (and perhaps all other banks as well). The reason they stopped making the big notes, I believe, had to do with counterfeiting.

BTW, there was a $100,000 note created once that was only used for exchanges between the US Treasure and the Federal Reserve.
