A member of the Greenback Party, a 19th-century American political movement that advocated for paper money over gold as currency.
From greenback + -er (agent suffix). The Greenback Party, officially the Independent National Party, emerged in the 1870s-1880s as a third political party opposing hard currency policies and supporting paper money.
The Greenback Party was surprisingly ahead of its time—it advocated for labor rights, women's suffrage, and an 8-hour workday decades before these became mainstream political positions, all united by their belief in paper currency's power.
