| | THE DOLLAR SIGN |
| | For Pennsylvanians, it is of special note that one of Carlisle's early settlers used his quill to inscribe the first dollar sign. | | | Oliver Pollock, born in Ireland, sailed across the Atlantic Ocean at the age of 23, and quickly established himself as a successful West Indies trader, in Carlisle, Pennsylvania. | | | Those coins became known as "Spanish milled dollars." Thus Americans began trading with "dollars," and not with "pounds." |

| | What relation does an S with a line through it have with the word "dollar"? | | | The dollar sign could therefore have arisen from superimposing the U over the S. The other theory also involves a superimposition, but this time with the word "peso." A distorted P over the S could be another possibility. |

| | Origin of the dollar sign (notes by Mark Brader) |
| | Spanish pesos were also called piastres, Spanish dollars, and pieces of eight. | | | It is sometimes said that the dollar sign's origin is a narrow "U" superimposed over a wide "S", "U.S." being short for "United States." This is wrong, and the correct explanation also tells why the $ sign is used both for dollars and for pesos in various countries. | | | The coins were so well known that, when the U.S. got around to issuing its own silver coinage (U.S. dollar coins first appeared in 1794), it simply replicated the Spanish unit's weight and hence value, and even one of its names; so it was natural to use the same symbol. |

| | AskOxford: What is the origin of the dollar sign ($)? |
| | The name 'dollar', however, derives from the Dutch or Low German word daler (in German taler or thaler) - originally Joachimstaler, referring to a coin from the silver mines of Joachimstal, in Bohemia (now Jáchymov in the Czech Republic), which opened in 1516. | | | Many suggestions have been made about the origin of the dollar symbol $, one of the commonest being that it derives from the figure 8, representing the Spanish 'piece of eight'. | | | The $ symbol first occurs in the 1770s, in manuscript documents of English-Americans who had business dealing with Spanish-Americans, and it starts to appear in print after 1800. |
