The US was still English in 1736. So there were no dollars in 1736. The dollar as we know it didn't come about until 1785, 9 years after the found of the republic.

What one dollar bought in 1785, now takes about $27.20 to buy due to inflation.

Are you asking about 271 years of inflation, or do you have 271 year old currency? If you are asking the later, you may get better answers in the collectibles category. There is probably no accurate answer to the former.
