On Wednesday, the U.S. Treasury Department announced that a redesign of the $10 bill would feature a yet-to-be-determined woman in addition to Alexander Hamilton, who “will remain part of the $10 note,” possibly appearing on a second version of the bill.

“We have only made changes to the faces on our currency a few times since bills were first put into circulation,” said U.S. Treasury Secretary Jack Lew, “and I’m proud that the new 10 will be the first bill in more than a century to feature the portrait of a woman.”

It will reportedly be several months until the Treasury decides what woman (who, by federal law, must be deceased) will be printed on the bill and the department is currently soliciting public input. From The Hill:

Lew said Obama administration officials are seeking advice nationwide — including people who “aren’t comfortable using a hashtag as well as people who are comfortable using a hashtag.”

“We are going to be open to many ideas as we go forward consistent with theme of democracy,” Lew said. “Our thinking is to select a woman who has played a major role in our history who represents the theme of democracy.”

According to the Treasury Department’s website, the bill will go into circulation sometime after 2020.

The last woman to appear on U.S. paper currency was Martha Washington, featured on the $1 Silver Certificate from 1891 to 1896.
