The U.S. began issuing coins denominated in dollars and cents starting in 1793. However, there were dollar-like coins and bills in circulation from the time of the Revolution; e.g. Continental Currency was issued as early as 1776.

The U.S. also allowed certain Spanish coins to co-circulate along with dollars until 1857.
