Key Facts & Value
Key Fact
Description
This is a standard one-dollar bill, officially designated as a Federal Reserve Note. It features a portrait of George Washington on the obverse and the Great Seal of the United States on the reverse. The note is characterized by its green ink on the reverse and black ink on the obverse, printed on specialized paper. Its dimensions are approximately 6.14 inches by 2.61 inches.
History
The design of the one-dollar bill has remained largely consistent for decades, with minor alterations. George Washington, the first President of the United States, has been featured on the bill since 1928. The Bureau of Engraving and Printing is responsible for its production, ensuring the integrity and widespread circulation of this fundamental unit of currency.
Facts
The one-dollar bill is the most common denomination of US currency and is a symbol of American commerce. It is the only US banknote that features a building on the reverse, the U.S. Treasury. The green color, a tradition since 1869, is due to the ink's composition, which was difficult to counterfeit at the time.
Value Fact
As a common circulating banknote, this one-dollar bill has a face value of one dollar. While specific serial numbers or unique printing errors can increase collector value, most standard one-dollar bills are valued at or very close to their face value in typical circulation. Demand remains consistently high for this denomination.
