Before 1933, the eagle was the largest of the five main decimal base-units of a denomination in the United States. These five main base-units of the denomination were the mill, the cent, the dime, the dollar, and the eagle. A cent was equal to 10 mills, a dime is equal to 10 cents, a dollar is equal to 10 dimes, and an eagle is equal to 10 dollars.
