Harriet Tubman beat out Eleanor Roosevelt in a popularity contest for it. That's fine. But in all candor, I think Hamilton is the better looking woman. t8, Problem is, the "green back" is quite easily counterfeited. More so than many other popular currencies. North Korea is believed to be a major source of counterfeit U.S. currency; a direct impact on the U.S. economy. I understand. I'm somewhat of a traditionalist as well. BUT !!! There's more people on this planet than dead White guys. I don't think having a woman on our currency is such a bad idea. But I'd have thought Dolly Madison might have been the more obvious choice.

IMHO...should've been a 'Native American'...like Sacagawea! She helped the white man map this country! Just say'n.

I only carry Benjamins. Who cares what they put on the ten?

Sure 2A. Sacajawea is a superb choice. But we've already got a $dollar $coin with her on it. But she was a remarkable, perhaps heroic woman!

"no one uses that coin" 2A That's true, but immaterial. I gather it's still legal tender for all debts both public and private. The point is, it exists. So having the Sac-meister on two different forms of U.S. currency would trump Washington, and all the rest. It would be a protocol breach.

Did you forget about that Indian Head Nickel we used to have mented...nothing about our currency is written in STONE!

I'm for having nothing but US Presidents on US currency. Wouldn't Hilliary look nice?

"Did you forget about that Indian Head Nickel we used to have ..." 2A Yes. I did forget. And as there was an Indian head penny, that might seem like a protocol breach as well. BUT !! I believe that was a generic "Indian" (aboriginal American), intended to represent all tribes, and all members of each tribe. If either the nickel "Indian" or the penny "Indian" was to represent a specific person, who?
