The reason we don't put women on our currency.
The reason we don't put a picture of a woman on our currency, like say, "A woman in our dollar bill," is because that would ruin our economy. Think about it..., our dollar bill would then be worth 77 cents ;)

Pennies are currently made from copper plated zinc. Coins with ridges were originally made with precious metals. The ridges were used to easily detect people clipping or filing off these precious metals. A U.S. Quarter has 119 grooves on its circumference. A dime has 118 grooves. Lincoln faces to the right because the penny was an adaptation of a plaque. E Pluribus Unum means "Out of Many, One". On the back of a Roosevelt dime, the center torch signifies liberty. The oak branch to the right signifies strength and independence. The olive branch to the left signifies peace. On an American one dollar bill, there is an owl in the upper left-hand corner of the "1" encased in the "shield" and a spider hidden in the front upper right-hand corner. The law prohibits portraits of living persons from appearing on Government Securities. Currency paper is composed of 25% linen and 75% cotton. Side: Wait..., what?
