Throughout U.S. history, six notable types of currencies include: the Continental Currency, issued by the Continental Congress during the Revolutionary War; gold and silver coins, which were standard before the establishment of a paper currency system; banknotes from various state-chartered banks in the 19th century; greenbacks, which were paper notes issued during the Civil War; silver certificates, redeemable for silver; and Federal Reserve notes, introduced in 1914 and currently in use as the nation's official currency. Each type reflects the evolving economic and political landscape of the country.
