I was reminded offlist of a famous 'Johnny Dollar' character on the radio: _http://www.old-time.com/otrlogs2/j_dollarhx.html_ (http://www.old-time.com/otrlogs2/j_dollarhx.html) Incidentally, I wrote 'doller' on purpose. The OED gives the following spelling variants for the American currency: Forms: 6 daleir, -er, dal(l)or, dalder, doler, dolor, 6-7 daller, 7-8 doller, -or, 7- dollar.
