Etymology
The word 'dollars' originates from the German 'Thaler' and the Dutch 'daalder', which were both coins used in the 16th century. The term 'dollar' was officially adopted by the United States in 1785. The dollar sign '$' is believed to have evolved from the Spanish 'pieces of eight' coins, which were also called 'pesos'.
