I don't collect paper money save for a few old bills I have accumulated from circulation. My favorite is the $1 silver certificate.

I like the reverse of the current $2 bill, with the signing of the Declaration of Independence.

The Native American depicted on the 1899 $5 bill is not just a random person. It is actually chief Running Antelope. He was a chief in the Hunkpapa tribe of Lokata Indians. He passed away in 1896, so he never got to see his likeness on United States paper money.

I'm always torn between the Chief and the Bison, but I think I'd probably vote for the Chief as well.  |

I`m a foreigner but I love old US Currency, therfore I will write what I think. Important for me is the $ 100 bill, because they shows the Father or better the first creator of US Currency. Mr. Benjamin Franklin. The security features he invented had existed all over the World until the 1990s. I could write again about so many US bills but today I will designate just one bill. The $20 bill Series of 1914.   From this issue I have all 12 Districts and 23 different variants. The back speaks to me and let me dream. Perhaps especially too: On the back you can see a German ship and the front shows the only US president whose office hours did not follow successively. I like the portraits of Grant because he looks like a cool guy. Benjamin Harrison looks wise and gracious. Edited by hajduk

The front portrait on the $20 (above) is former 22nd and 24th President of the United States Grover Cleveland.
Cleveland is also engraved on the small size $1,000 note. A two term President, but not consecutive terms.

I picked the two dollar bill.  Of course, I am of the opinion that the one dollar bill needs to go away. If it did then the two would see more use. |

Welcome to CCF @orange26, I was confused a bit by the title.
"What's your favorite US dollar bill that's in currency?"
I thought you meant current circulating examples, and I voted for the $50 with Grant......it seems that members are voting for any US currency ever printed, both large and small. Every image posted has been large size examples.

@SteveInTampa - Thanks. :) I was referring to the dollar bills that are currently in circulation. I didn't put the dollar bills higher than 100 in the poll, because they are no longer in circulation. They're still legal tender, though.
