American MoneyThink about a dollar bill. On it is an image of George Washington.

But Washington was not always on the dollar. And the dollar was not always green. American money has changed over time.

Continental Currency

The American Revolution cost money. The colonists thought of a way to pay for the war. They printed a kind of paper money. These bills were called Continentals. But Continentals were not backed by gold or silver. After the war they lost their worth.

A New Country, A New Currency

If at first you don’t succeed try, try again. The United States had won the war. Now they needed their own money. The dollar became the United States unit of currency in 1785. The first United States pennies were made in 1793. They were worth one cent each. One hundred pennies equaled one dollar. The first pennies showed a woman with flowing hair. She was called Lady Liberty. Today, President Lincoln is on the penny. Other presidents are on our money too. George Washington is on the quarter. Thomas Jefferson is on the nickel. Andrew Jackson is on the $20 bill.

Honoring American Leaders

Ben Franklin was a famous author, scientist, and statesman. He is on the $100 bill. Sacagawea was a Native American woman. She helped Lewis and Clark reach the West Coast of North America. She is on a special dollar coin.

Free Banking Era

A good name is better than riches. In 1836 most banks did not have good reputations. Any bank could print money called bank notes. Bank notes came in many colors, shapes, and sizes. A dollar note in Maine did not look the same as a dollar note in New York. Often bank notes could only be turned in for coins at the bank that made them. Some banks did not have gold or silver to back them up. There is a proverb that says, “Don’t put all your eggs in one basket.” Many people only had dollars from one bank. Soon people had dollars that they could not use.

Greenbacks

In 1861 the first greenbacks were made. These notes used green ink. They were the same in all the states. $5, $10, and $20 bills were the first greenbacks. Later, $1, $2, $50, $100, $500, and $1000 bills were printed too. The faces of presidents were shown on them. George Washington was on the dollar bill for the first time in 1862. The North used greenbacks during the Civil War. The South used their own paper money called Confederate dollars. History repeats itself. Just like Continentals, Confederate dollars lost their worth when the war ended.

American Money Today

The Federal Reserve is in charge of printing money today. In 1929, it started printing smaller dollars. We still use these dollars today. Our money has changed over time. Who knows what the dollar will look like in 100 years!
