In 1776, the United States did not have a standardized currency; instead, various forms of money were used, including British pounds, Spanish dollars, and other foreign coins. The Continental Congress issued the Continental Currency to fund the Revolutionary War, but it quickly depreciated due to lack of backing and rampant counterfeiting. Additionally, colonies and states issued their own paper money and coins. This lack of a unified currency system contributed to economic instability during that period.
