Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin and his wife, Louise Linton, caused a stir on the internet Wednesday as they unveiled the first $1 bills bearing the signatures of both him and US Treasurer Jovita Carranza.

The signature will go on the bottom right of all newly minted bills, replacing former Treasury Secretary Jack Lew's name.

Previously, Mnuchin told CNBC's Becky Quick he changed his signature to make it more legible for the currecny.
