Was a one dollar bill ever printed smaller than the regular size?

Yes, a one dollar bill was printed smaller than the regular size during the early years of its production. The first U.S. one dollar notes, issued in 1862, were smaller than the modern size, measuring approximately 7.4 inches by 3.1 inches. However, the dimensions were standardized to the current size of 6.14 inches by 2.61 inches with the introduction of the so-called "large size" notes in 1929, which remains in use today.
