The last year that they printed any high denomination currency was in 1945 (with the series of 1934). They started being actively removed from circulation starting in 1969 (although in practice most had vanished earlier) and today they are worth more than face to collectors of currency (especially the 10,000 bill!)
Coins are minted, bills are printed.$2 bills are still being made, just not in very large quantities. As of this writing, the most recent series was started in 2013.
In the United States of America, the Secretary of Treasury that is in office at the time the paper currency is printed is whose signature appears on the actual bill. It is the same signature used for all currency values: $1, $2, $5, $10, etc. Therefore, the signature will vary from year to year based on who actually held that office the year that the currency was printed.

They're printed every year.
1964
The 500 dollar bill was last printed in 1945 and officially discontinued on July 14, 1969.
The $2 bill has not been discontinued. New ones are printed as needed. The most recent series is dated 2008.

1945 - withdrawn from circulation 1969. The same applies to the $1,000, $5,000, and $10,000. The highest US bill, the $100,000, was only printed in 1938 and withdrawn from circulation in 1940.
The year should be printed on the front of the bill
There's no "only year". The US printed $500 bills from 1862 through 1945, although the last run was all part of the 1934 series so even the ones printed in 1945 have the 1934 date (!)
i got back 9,800.
Nope. But there is a series date on the bill. That would be the earliest date it could have been printed. There are tons of books that will tell you the last year each series was issued.
It's usually impossible to tell exactly what year a bill was printed because the same year and series letter is used until there is a change in the Treasury Secretary, Treasurer, or the bill's design.
1976 was the first year that the modern looking $2 bill was printed. However, $2 bills have been printed in one form or another since the 1860s
The year the bill was printed is on every US currency note. The year will be listed to the lower right of the bust of Andrew Jackson marked as "series" (year)
