The phrase "not worth a continental" was commonly used in the 19th century to indicate something of little or no value. It is not specifically attributed to any one individual.
The Continental dollar became virtually worthless due to rampant inflation and overproduction during the American Revolutionary War. The Continental Congress issued large quantities of the currency to finance the war effort, but this led to a loss of confidence among the public. Additionally, the lack of backing by gold or silver further diminished its value, resulting in widespread acceptance of it at significantly depreciated rates. Ultimately, by the end of the war, the Continental dollar was nearly worthless, leading to the phrase "not worth a Continental."
They are both part of the larger structure called the continental margin where a continental plate meets an oceanic plate. The lower (deeper) end of the continental slope is called the continental rise.
No, active continental margins typically do not have a continental rise. Instead, they often have a steep continental slope that descends into a deep oceanic trench due to tectonic activity. Continental rises are found at passive continental margins where there is minimal tectonic activity.

When one plate slides beneath another it is said to subduct. This is called a subduction zone. However, a continental plate cannot subduct, only an oceanic plate can. When two continental plates collide the land between them is squeezed horizontally, forming mountain ranges. Eventually the continental land masses will fuse together.
The Continental Cngress was unable to prevent deep depreciation of its paper currency.

It refers to the money that was issued during the American Revolution. Because it had no backing in hard currency, inflation set in, the continental dollar fell in value, and became worth very little.
According to PlasticIQ, Continental miles are worth about $0.0122 per mile. They reached this estimate based on the varying destinations, fare types, class, and the market ticket price.
The continental was a currency issued by the Continental Congress during the American Revolution, which was essentially worthless since it was not backed by any concrete assets.
