Inside the US Dollar Factory: How Money Is Made (Full Process)

Ever wondered how US dollars are actually made? In this complete factory documentary, we take you inside the Bureau of Engraving and Printing — one of the most secure facilities on Earth — to reveal every step of the currency manufacturing process, from raw cotton to the cash in your wallet.

Creating the world's most trusted currency isn't simple. It requires specialized cotton-linen paper, secret ink formulas, and master engravers who train for decades. Watch the incredible journey of the $100 bill through 50-ton printing presses and over 65 individual security checks.

💸 THE MONEY MAKING PROCESS:

The Paper: A special blend of 75% cotton and 25% linen from Crane Currency.

Security Features: Embedded threads, watermarks, and color-shifting ink.
Master Engraving: Hand-carved designs where lines are thinner than a human hair.

Intaglio Printing: Massive presses apply 20 tons of pressure for that raised texture.

The COPE System: Adding unique serial numbers and Federal Reserve seals.
Inspection: 30% of bills fail quality control and are destroyed instantly.

💰 FASCINATING CURRENCY FACTS:

The Bureau produces over 38 million notes per day (worth ~$750 million).
A typical $100 bill can circulate for 15 years due to the durable linen blend.
Over $500 million in old currency is shredded every single day.
