Which woman would you like to see on the new $10 bill?

It’s official. A woman will get a place on paper money once again. On Wednesday, U.S. Treasury Secretary Jacob Lew announced that a woman will appear on a new version of the $10 which will be released in 2020. The decision about which woman that will be won’t be made for a few more months.

The last time a woman appeared on a $10 bill was in 1896 when Martha Washington appeared on the $1 Silver Certificate, first issued in 1891. So who will be chosen to share the "ten spot" with Alexander Hamilton?

Here are few of Yahoo Finance’s picks:

Harriet Tubman

Getting a great deal of support on Twitter, Harriet Tubman is shaping up to be a leading contender. Tubman was one of America's leading abolitionists before the Civil War. She escaped slavery in her 20s but returned to the South more than ten times to help others via the Underground Railroad.

Eleanor Roosevelt

Eleanor Roosevelt is also getting buzz on Twitter. During her tenure as first lady, Roosevelt redefined the role of FLOTUS: She wrote a newspaper column and held her own press conferences. After her husband’s death, she became the chair of the United Nations’ Human Rights Commission.

Rosa Parks

Rosa Parks is also getting plenty of votes on Twitter. Parks was a black seamstress who refused to give her seat to a white man on a city bus in Montgomery, Alabama in 1955. Her arrest and later conviction for violating segregation laws helped spark the civil rights movement.

Alice Paul

How about Alice Paul?  Paul was an outspoken leader in the women’s suffrage movement. Her nonviolent campaigns led to the passage of the Nineteenth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution in 1920 which gave women the right to vote.

Clara Barton

Clara Barton's name is also being discussed. Barton was a Civil War-era nurse, health activist, teacher and humanitarian. Her nickname became “Angel of the Battlefield.” At age 60, Barton founded the American Red Cross in Washington, D.C. in 1881.

Maya Angelou

Maya Angelou is a leading choice for a more modern candidate.  The American writer and poet became a stalwart of the civil rights movement. She gained worldwide fame after she delivered her poem, “On the Pulse of Morning,” at the inauguration of Bill Clinton in 1993.

Amelia Earhart

A dark horse candidate for the $10 bill: Amelia Earhart. Earhart was the first female aviator to fly solo across the Atlantic Ocean. Her plane mysteriously disappeared over the Pacific Ocean in 1937 while trying to circumnavigate the globe.
