User:Godot13/sandbox List of people on United States Bank Notes (retired original)

United States Bank Notes (1861 to the present) depict 53 people [1] central to the history of the United States. This list includes (but is not limited to) Presidents, Cabinet Members, Members of Congress, Founders, Jurists, and Military Leaders. Some faces are seen daily on modern currency, others are familiar from the pages of history but may be surprising on a bank note. There may be one or two who are completely unfamiliar.

The complete list of individuals depicted on U.S. Bank Notes (not including Fractional Currency) is shown below alphabetically. The most commonly associated titles, positions held, or affiliations (with dates) are listed. The Title/Position/Affiliation list is not exhaustive or comprehensive. In cases where an individual occupied multiple elected or cabinet-level positions, the highest ranking position (determined by succession to the Presidency)[2] is listed first. Where available, political and religious affiliation are reported.

Many of the individuals below were depicted on more than one note of a series or denomination. In the description of the bank notes, the date in parentheses indicates the individual’s first appearance on a given note type and denomination. When multiple bank notes are listed, the order, though seeming random, is in accordance with the Friedberg Catalog Number, in ascending Friedberg order.[1]

The engraved portraits below are from a virtual exhibit of bank notes [3] which are part of the National Numismatic Collection at the Smithsonian Institution.
