The new $10 bill won't be out until 2020, but when it is released, a woman will replace Alexander Hamilton as the primary image, according to an announcement from U.S. Treasury Secretary Jacob Lew.

The release of the new bill will honor the 100th anniversary of the passage of the 19th Amendment, which gave women the right to vote.

The woman hasn't been selected yet, but she will be chosen for her work building and supporting democracy. "America's currency is a way for our nation to make a statement about who we are and what we stand for. Our paper bills—and the images of great American leaders and symbols they depict—have long been a way for us to honor our past and express our values," Lew said.
