Bicycle Legal Tender Playing Cards

Bicycle Legal Tender, designed by Jackson Robinson, reimagines the intricate craftsmanship of historic American currency as a fully custom playing card deck. Released as part of USPCC's Bicycle Designer Series, the deck blends classic Bicycle handling with richly detailed, engraving-inspired artwork that pays homage to the visual language of vintage U.S. banknotes.

Money has always been more than a means of exchange—it’s a showcase for national symbolism, ornate filigree, and meticulous linework meant to reward close inspection. Legal Tender translates that tradition directly to the tabletop, drawing from the same ornamental borders, portrait-style vignettes, and razor-fine detailing found on historical currency. Every card feels like a miniature print, designed with the patience and precision associated with collector-grade engravings.

Produced as an official Bicycle-branded release, Legal Tender continues to balance timeless aesthetics with modern execution. Jackson Robinson’s artwork gives the deck a cohesive, fully custom look while preserving the familiar feel players expect from his designs. 

Bicycle Legal Tender stands as a refined celebration of traditional illustration, where classic design, craftsmanship, and usability intersect in a deck that feels equally at home on the card table or in a collector’s archive. Available now $14.99 from Cardtopia.
