I'm familiar with the people on all of the US currency in common circulation....Washington, Lincoln, Hamilton, Jackson, Grant, Franklin; also Lincoln, Roosevelt, Jefferson, Washington.
I'm sure I'd know the names of the people on old 50 cent and dollar pieces, (JFK is one of them, I think) as well as the 2 dollar bill, but I don't know them off hand, as I rarely handle them. I'm ashamed to admit that I *only* know of Susan B Anthony because of her appearance on the Susan B Anthony dollars...I ignorantyl assume she had something to do with women's rights movement. Also, my absolute favorite colloquialism for dollars ever is "Sacagaweas" used in a Simpsons episode, in reference to the gold-colored Sacagawea dollar coins.
