I have no idea if any US currency ever utilized any hemp. I can't find any authoritative source material.

Some articles and searches:

Need to find the reliables sources for these articles.

This is in a couple of the above-linked articles:

The “Hemp 10 Dollar Bill” is available in the following series:

   Large-Size Ten Dollar Note, Federal Reserve Note, Series 1914/Red Seal
   Small-Size Ten Dollar Note, Federal Reserve Note, Series 1915/Blue Seal
   Small-Size Ten Dollar Note, Federal Reserve Note, Series 1918/Blue Seal

– The Comprehensive Catalog of US Paper Money, All United States Federal Currency Since 1812, Sixth Edition, Gene Hessler, ppg. 173-176.

I found that book on Amazon and Google Books. Neither have search capabilities within the book. So I don't know if there is hemp in those ten dollar notes. --Timeshifter (talk) 19:02, 18 August 2021 (UTC)Reply
