It is indicated on the front of the new ten dollar bill seen at http://www.moneyfactory.com/newmoney/main.cfm/currency/new10, that it is "Series 2004" when it in fact was released in 2006, wouldn't that make it series 2006? If anyone can give reasoning for this, please do.

New 10 Dollar bill unveiled. Check it out here http://www.moneyfactory.com/newmoney/main.cfm/currency/new10
The back of the $10 bill since 1928 has had the Treasury building. This should make sense because this goes with Alexander Hamilton on the front. However, how about the large sized $10 bill printed from 1914to1928?? It had a different portrait, someone who never was a Secretary of the Treasury. You may use http://www.currencygallery.org as a reference tool. 66.32.69.241 14:14, 7 Apr 2004 (UTC)
There are several Internet sites that date to the spring of 2001 that talk about putting Ronald Reagan on the $10 bill. Does anyone know the current status?? [[User:66.245.67.150

I've thoroughly and completely revised this article. Hope this article helps paint a piece of history of the U.S. $10 bill. Please let me know if you have any comments about it.

Why does the March 2, 2006 issue have 2004 on it? Esquizombi 04:05, 16 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
What does the series date actually mean?
== upside down flag ==
I have a 1950 ten-dollar bill with an upside down flag on it. Maybe this should be added.
I'll check back here on occassion to see if anyone has any comments. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.236.201.7 (talk • contribs)
For what it's worth, I was just here looking for information on the upside down flag and couldn't find any. -- Wdrev
WHAT IS THE WORD BEHIND THE DEPT. OF TREASURY STAMP? IT IS THE WORD BETWEEN WE------PEOPLE.
Why is Hamilton faciing left on the $10 bill while all other presidents on all other bills are facing right? He wasn't left handed or didnt have some horible scar. pls respond with real awnsers. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 137.85.6.104 (talk • contribs)
This is about the physical size of the notes. Please discuss at Talk:Large-sized note. --ChoChoPK (球球PK) (talk | contrib) --ChoChoPK (球球PK) (talk | contrib) 08:31, 31 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
This article is pretty lacking on details about the new 10s. The article on the 5 dollar bill talks about all the anti counterfeiting measures and new design features. I'm pretty surprised this got "B" article status with hardly any information on the current bill. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 167.7.17.3 (talk) 13:14, 10 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
um i just wanted to point out that the ONLY source listed doesnt lead anywhere... so im pretty lost here. also, why arent there any pictures of old tens? thanks —Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.3.66.59 (talk) 00:49, 3 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
The introductory paragraph currently states: "In addition to this, Hamilton is one of only two persons featured on U.S. currency who was not born in the continental United States, as he was from the West Indies. The other, Kamehameha I, appears on the 2008 Hawaii state quarter.)"
I believe John Muir is depicted on the California commemorative quarter, and he was born in Scotland. 98.150.128.79 (talk) 09:14, 10 July 2011 (UTC)M[reply]
Does anyone know the reason they chose the color orange for the recent redesign? Bostoner (talk) 19:09, 11 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
"Hamilton is one of two non-presidents featured on currently issued U.S. bills." Don't doubt this for an instant. What about other non-presidents on bills no longer current? I can only find Samuel P. Chase (on the $10,000 bill, from 1928 to 1946, and other smaller denomination bills, including the $1, much earlier on) Moletrouser (talk) 23:31, 30 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Correction made. Hamilton was not the only foreign-born person to be depicted on U.S. Banknotes. The following were added: Albert Gallatin, Switzerland ($500 1862/63 Legal Tender); George Meade, Spain ($1,000 1890/91 Treasury Note); and Robert Morris, England ($1,000 1862/63 Legal Tender; $10 1878/80 Silver Certificate). --Godot13 (talk) 05:06, 6 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hello! This is a note to let the editors of this article know that File:US-$10-LT-1901-Fr.114.jpg will be appearing as picture of the day on March 28, 2015. You can view and edit the POTD blurb at Template:POTD/2015-03-28. If this article needs any attention or maintenance, it would be preferable if that could be done before its appearance on the Main Page. Thanks! — Crisco 1492 (talk) 01:00, 9 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

The sizes of present US currency were stated in an info box in metric terms to six digits of precision. I doubted that the printing bureau ever stated such a precision, or that they regulated the cutters to slice the printed sheets into notes down to +/- .00005 mm for the height and .0005 mm for the width. I found the US government site https://uscurrency.gov/history-american-currency which states the dimensions as 6.14 inches by 2.61 inches, an achievable 3 digits of precision. I suggest that the dimensions of US currency in the infobox should be given in US units rather than metric units. This is not a science article, so metric units being standard for science is not convincing. I have no serious problem with leaving currency measurements metric, but I strongly object to implying the measurements are specified to 6 digits of precision, which is an artifact of mindlessly using a unit conversion program. Edison (talk) 21:37, 20 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Regarding the most recent pictures of the $10 currency: little was said about the security stripe other than that it was there and that it was revealed by UV light. Is the writing always visible from the front face of the bill--or always visible from the rear face? Is this an important counterfeit issue? Perhaps showing what it looks like might be helpful for those without access to a UV light; just a thought (I have one, so it isn't an issue for me).
[I'd upload one myself but I'm having some hardware problems at the moment so I can only make the suggestion--but I'm very curious about about the front versus rear facing writing issue on the security strip. Not a word is said about it on the Treasury & BEP .gov sites. I looked--very thoroughly. Nothing.]

So, this $10 bill was created in 1861 ? --41.103.171.182 (talk) 21:06, 16 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
InThe Boys, I saw a scene where 10$ was referred to as a "tenner". The 5$ bill mentions a "fiver". Is it sufficiently notable to include tenner? 75.142.254.3 (talk) 02:04, 29 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
