English term or phrase: buckskins
La frase es la siguiente: Before paper money was used, North Americans used buckskins for money. This is where we get the term "bucks" (for dollars).
Es una traducción de un documento muy sencillo sobre la historia del dinero impreso, para alumnos jóvenes de habla hispana en los Estados Unidos.
El diccionario Webster define buckskin como "a soft, usually napped, yellowish-gray leather made from the skins of deer or sheep".
El diccionario politécnico de F. Atienza lo traduce como "coturno / piel de ante / paño fuerte inglés / tela de algodón perchada por el envés.
