I seem to have lost the first posts on this thread. I remember waiting to
see when someone would mention that "skin" was at one time a term for a
bill. I wasn't sure which denomination. OED yields one dollar from M20.
Since "a skin in the game" seems pretty transparent, I'm wondering what the
original question was?
