Original – Since the United States federal government began issuing U.S. Banknotes in 1861, depictions of the female form have appeared in vignettes and allegories most often representing themes of liberty and justice. Fifty-two men have been depicted on United States Banknotes from 1861 to the present. Martha Washington is the only woman.
