Woman to be on new $10 bill

Woman to be on new $10 bill - Jun. 17, 2015

Start putting in your guesses on who it will be. Thank god the department will launch a website, and is asking for input over social media with the hashtag #TheNew10. Deciding this by hashtag is much better than the American Idol type voting that will probably happen to make the decision.

I guess it's no longer all about the Hamiltons.

Schmidty · 06-18-2015, 10:21 AM

I think this is a great idea. I also heard there will still be some with Hamilton on them.

I'm voting for Harriet Tubman.

Kodos · 06-18-2015, 10:28 AM

Linda Hamilton --T2 era.

Chief Rum · 06-18-2015, 10:30 AM

I heard it's going to be Ned Yost's wife, courtesy of Royals fans.

tarcone · 06-18-2015, 10:36 AM

It has to be Farah Fawcett. What middle age man didn't have that iconic poster? I imagine congress is full of guys who had that poster on the wall.

ISiddiqui · 06-18-2015, 10:43 AM

I actually think it should have been the $20 and not the $10. Alexander Hamilton was much more influential in creating a National Bank, while Andrew Jackson was against it (and killed it).

+1

Jackson loved killing the natives.

That was my thought process as well.

Could it be because he was a president? Maybe because the 20 is more iconic?

Oh, the official reason is that the $20 has been redesigned more recently. The $10 is the next one "on the dock" for a redesign.

BillJasper · 06-18-2015, 11:23 AM

As long as I can still trade it for goods and services, I don't care whose on it. Whether it be Hamilton, a woman or my meth addicted neighbor.

I can't even remember the last time I even had a $10 bill, use the debit card for most everything.

The girl from the DirecTV commercials? Hannah (not sure of her last name); think she is Derek Jeter's girlfriend.

It's a bummer that no else seems to care.

Why? Did women's contributions decrease and the men in our history increase?

I think it'd be more exciting for a female face to be on a debit card these days.

Not at all. But as a society that is decreasing its use of physical money, this just isn't the big thing it use to be. We've gotten around to deciding to put a woman on money after it is clearly a dying form of payment.

So why don't we ask the only group that still uses paper money what they want? By that I mean why not ask the women who have to stick this stuff down their G-strings every night? Who do they want touching their lady parts all the time?

They only see $1s and $20s.

Logan · 04-20-2016, 11:08 AM

Hamilton sticks on the $10 bill. Jackson off the $20, being replaced by Harriet Tubman.

ISiddiqui · 04-20-2016, 11:11 AM

Here's a link to what Logan said, with also some news about changes to the $5:

Treasury's Lew to announce Hamilton to stay on $10 bill - POLITICO

Quote:

Treasury will also announce that it plans to replace former President Andrew Jackson on the $20 bill with Harriet Tubman, the sources said. There will also be changes to the $5 bill to depict civil rights era leaders.

I am high favor of replacing Jackson with Tubman on the $20. Hamilton was always a strange choice to take off - he's the one who created our banking system in the first place.

molson · 04-20-2016, 11:21 AM

"The announcement drew swift rebukes from fans of Hamilton"

I like that historical figures can have "fans". If I start to think about it, I'm sure there's all kinds of long dead people I'm a fan of. I just don't really know what I'd do with that fandom. Except write letters of complaint to the Treasury, I guess.

Pretty sure this is the reason they are leaving the $10 bill alone.

I think this is a really cool thing, but as others have noted, paper currency is on the decline. Good to see the $20 is the one being replaced though...

Subby · 04-20-2016, 01:44 PM

8.6 billion $20 bills in circulation as of last year. Still a pretty big deal.

FRB: Currency in Circulation: Volume

murrayyyyy · 04-20-2016, 01:48 PM

So Lincoln on the front and historical women on the back of the $5? So the back of a 5 is the new quarter?

Funny side note, I had a cashier call for a manager the other day because I gave her a Sacagawea dollar and she claimed it wasn't real money but a token from Chuck E Cheese. I told her to give it back to me but she wanted to show the manager I was trying to fool her with fake money.

The $20 bill is probably the best candidate given cash machines and the volume of twenties in circulation because of them.

It was very on script by them, no doubt.

Young Drachma · 04-20-2016, 04:30 PM

Tubman won't appear until 2030. And Jackson will stay on the back of the currency. This administration has the backbone of a fish.
