Colonial Coin and Banknote
Colonial Coin and Banknote set includes replicas of a $1 Continental coin and a $20 Continental note. During the Revolutionary War, there was not much money in circulation, so the state governments and the Congress issued their own paper money so that trade could carry on. The $1 coin was the first silver-dollar sized coin ever made for the United States. The $20 note was produced after 1777; it contains the words “United States.” Earlier notes read “United Colonies.”
