Best Answer

The 1990 series redesign removed all old cars from the reverse-side picture. In addition the image was simplified to show only the Treasury building.

Despite much speculation to the contrary, the Treasury has always maintained that in order to avoid commercialism, the cars shown on the old bills were generic composites and didn't represent any specific brand.

What car is on the back of the US 10 dollar bill?

There isn't a car on the back of a modern US 10 dollar bill.Older ten dollar bills showed a 1920's-style auto but it wasn't a specific model. The Treasury intentionally combined features of different cars to avoid possible charges of favoritism or free advertising.AnswerBills first issued in 1928 had a generic car on the back. The car is not a particular model but is merely an artist's interpretation. Newer $10 bills only show the Treasury Building in a more close-up image.AnswerGreat question, but no firm answer - in 1928, the reverse of the ten dollar bill had a picture of a car that many believed was a model T-Ford; actually, the car was a composite of multiple cars of that specific time era. According to some people the car was inspired by a 1926 Hupmobile.Trivia: The tiny building to the right rear of the treasury building is the American Security and Trust Company Building, which for some years advertised itself as "right on the money"

How many cars and lightposts are on the back of a US 10 dollar bill?

The current $10 bill shows two lightposts and no cars. Before the bill was redesigned in 1990, the vignette of the Treasury Building showed 8 lightposts and 4 identifiable cars, although a 5th may be barely visible. The Treasury is firm in its statement that the cars were composite images, in order to avoid favoring any particular manufacturer. Many people who have looked at cars of that period have found elements that appear to have been taken from a Ford Model T and a 1926 Hupmobile, among others. The same design persisted for almost 60 years and became emblematic of the Treasury's then-refusal to update American currency. When that policy finally changed in 1990, the new image no longer included anything that could be obviously be associated with a specific time period.


Why do many people feel that Federalism can be defined by examining a dollar bill and a drivers license?

Maybe federalism means the relation between the national government and the states, something that was spelled out in the Constitution in 1789. Notice that a dollar bill (representing the money circulating in the U.S.) is an example of the federal government at work, since only the federal government can issue money. Driver's licenses are issued by each state, one of the responsibilities that was left to the individual states because it was not specifically enumerated in the Constitution (naturally, since there were no cars back in those days).
