"It's a non-political situation where the main goal of changing the currency is to put an end to counterfeiting," Mnuchin said at a briefing on crypto- currencies. He described the delay in Tubman's note, unveiled for the first time in great pomp by his predecessor, Jack Lew, as due to technology rather than personal preference.
"These are very complex things that, once they are developed, require different machines," Mnuchin added. He added that there is no scenario in which Tubman's rating would be published before the end of a potential second term of Trump.
The desire to replace President Andrew Jackson, owner of slavery, by the hero of the subway, arrived in 2016, towards the end of the second term of Obama.
Mnuchin said that he would focus first on the 10 and 50 dollar bills. He will later consider a new redesign of notes.
He also said Tubman was "fantastic" and suggested placing it on the $ 2 bill, which features President Thomas Jefferson.
