Best Answer

The Treasury Department has 2 printing facilities. The original plant is in Washington DC, and in 1988 a second plant was opened in Fort Worth. Bills printed at Fort Worth have a tiny "FW" to the left of the plate-position number in one corner of the bill.

The Treasury division that operates these facilities is called the Bureau of Engraving and Printing. In spite of widespread misconceptions, paper money ISN'T made by the US Mint; they only make coins.
