Hamiltons

Bills with Alexander

Hamiltons is slang for ten-dollar bills, from the portrait of Alexander Hamilton on U.S. currency: I've got a few Hamiltons in my wallet.

The term gained wider use after the Broadway musical *Hamilton* brought renewed attention to the founding father. (Singular Hamilton refers to one such bill or to the historical figure.)
