In that time there have been legends concerning its true value, scarcity, luckiness, and legality.History of the Two-Dollar BillThe two-dollar bill has gone through several changes during its history. The story began in 1862 and continues to the present (2009).First printed in 1862 with the portrait of Alexander Hamilton on the obverse (front). It was a profile as opposed to the portrait of Hamilton displayed on today’s ten-dollar bill.In 1869, Hamilton was replaced by his political adversary, Thomas Jefferson, and the United States Capital.Over the years the bill has carried various “note” references (United States Note, Treasury Note, Silver Certificate, Federal Reserve Bank Note).Civil War General Winfield Scott Hancock appeared on the obverse of the bill.U.S. Treasury Secretary William Windom replaced Winfield in 1891.In 1896, the bill became known as the Educational Series. It had symbolic representations of science introducing steam and electricity to manufacturing and commerce. The reverse side of the bill contained portraits of Robert Fulton (steam) and Samuel Morse (electricity).1899 saw the bill changed again. This time George Washington appeared surrounded by anthropomorphic versions of agriculture and mechanics.Thomas Jefferson returned on the obverse in 1918 with World War I battleship on the reverse of the now large-sized Federal Reserve Note.In 1929, the bill reverted to its current size and the reverse was changed to a picture of Jefferson’s home, Monticello.In August of 1966, the two-dollar bill was officially discontinued.It was brought back to life in 1976 and for the Bicentennial, an engraved version of John Trumbull’s The Signing of the Declaration of Independence replaced Monticello on the reverse.Series 1995 was printed in 1996 and 1997.Series 2017 is currently the most recent printing.The bills are printed according to demand. The bills are not in high demand and therefore are published less frequently and in smaller quantities than other bills. (Approximately 1% of all paper bills made are two-dollar bills. In comparison, 48% are one-dollar bills.)-<>-<>-<>-<>-<>-____________________________________________________________ -------------------------------------------------- About The U.S. $2.00 Dollar The United States two-dollar bill ($2) is a denomination of United States currency.---------------------------------------------------------------------------------The denomination of two dollars was authorized under a congressional act, and first issued in March 1862. The denomination was continuously used until 1966; by this time the United States Note was the only remaining class of U.S. currency the two-dollar bill was assigned to. In August 1966, the Treasury Department discontinued production of the $2 and $5 denominations of United States Notes. While the $5 denomination had long been issued simultaneously as both a Federal Reserve Note and United States Note, the $2 denomination was not immediately reassigned to the Federal Reserve Note class of United States currency and was thus fully discontinued. The Treasury cited the two-dollar note's low use as the reason for not immediately resuming use of the denomination. Production of the two-dollar denomination was resumed in late 1975 and the two-dollar bill was finally reissued as a Federal Reserve Note in the spring of 1976 with a new reverse design featuring John Trumbull's depiction of the drafting of the United States Declaration of Independence replacing the previous design of Monticello. It has remained a current denomination since that time. It was estimated that if two-dollar notes replaced approximately half of the one-dollar notes in circulation, the federal government would be able to save about $26 million in 1976 dollars ($117 million adjusted for inflation) over the period from 1976 to 1981, due to reduced production, storage, and shipping costs. However, due to their limited use, two-dollar notes are not printed as frequently in a new series as other denominations, which are produced according to demand. Most bill acceptors found in vending machines, self checkout lanes, transit systems and other automated kiosks are configured to accommodate two-dollar bills, even if the fact is not stated on the label. There remains a common misconception that the $2 note is no longer being produced, though $2 notes have been printed since 1862, except for a ten year hiatus between 1966-76. The U.S. treasury reports that $1,549,052,714 worth of $2 bills were in circulation worldwide as of April 30, 2007. Things such as unusual serial numbers (example: A11111111A), and replacement notes designated by a star ✯ in the serial number can raise the collector value. "Collectible" or "Enhanced" two-dollar bills, commemorating America's National Parks and other places, people and events, have been made and sold by coin dealers and others in recent years merely by adding color, special graphics or color printed plastic overlays onto regular issue two-dollar bills by using computer printers. The creators and marketers of many of these bills unscrupulously imply that they are authorized or issued by the federal government; however, no "Collectible" or "Enhanced" two-dollar bills have been authorized by the United States Treasury, the Bureau of Engraving and Printing (BEP) nor any other government agency and have no value above their $2 face on the collectors' market. On November 3, 1975, Secretary of the Treasury William E. Simon announced the reissuance of the $2 note as a cost-saving measure; the new $2 notes would be available from banks on April 13, 1976, Thomas Jefferson's birthday. Series 1976 $2 bills were partially redesigned and reissued as a Federal Reserve Note. The note retains the same portrait of Jefferson, and the basic design of the obverse remains unchanged since 1928. The treasury seal and serial numbers are printed in green ink, replacing the red used on the previous United States Note. Since the reintroduction of the note coincided with the United States Bicentennial, it was decided to use a bicentennial-themed design on the reverse. The bill was not issued specifically to celebrate the bicentennial, as is widely assumed. An engraved rendition (not an exact reproduction) of John Trumbull's Declaration of Independence replaced Monticello on the reverse. First-day issues of the new $2 bills could be taken to a post office and stamped with the date "APR 13 1976". In all, 590,720,000 notes from Series 1976 were printed.---------------------------------------------------------------------------------Years of printing: 1862–1966, 1976–Present...---------------------------------------------------------------------------------____________________________________________________________The United States has had a long and varied history when it comes to paper currency, with the first $2 bill issued in 1862. Throughout the $2 bill's pre-1929 life as a large-sized note, it was issued as a United States Note, a National Bank Note, a Silver Certificate, a Treasury or "Coin" Note, and a Federal Reserve Bank Note. When U.S. currency was changed to its current size, in 1928, the $2 bill was redesigned and issued only as a United States Note. Production continued until 1966, when United States Notes were phased out; the $2 denomination was discontinued until 1976, when it was reissued as a Federal Reserve Note, with a new reverse. However, the design of the $2 bill changed dramatically in the 1960s, when the government decided to update the look of US currency. The 1976 $2 bill was the first new $2 bill to be released since the redesign during the 1960s. 1. Front & BackThe $2 bill features a portrait of Thomas Jefferson, the third president of the United States (1801–1809), is featured on the obverse of the note. The reverse features an engraving of John Trumbull's painting with a depiction of the signing of the Declaration of Independence (c. 1818). The design of the bill is similar to other currency from the 1970s, with a green seal and serial number, and a green and black border.2. Series DateTo identify a $2 bill, you will need to look at the series date, which is located on the upper right-hand side of the front of the bill. The series date will be 1976 or 2017A or something similar.3. SignatureAnother way to identify the $2 bill is to look at the signature on the bill. The signature will be that of the Treasurer of the United States and the Secretary of the Treasury. --------------------------------------------------____________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________CURRENCY GRADING GEM UNCIRCULATED – (65-70)Usual Characteristics: no flaws or folds, excellent to perfect centering, strong embossing and thick paperGem notes are the royalty of currency collecting. They are not often encountered in grades 67 and up, and such notes command very strong prices. Gem notes should be clean with no distractions or folds. The centering should be within 75% of perfect. The colors and paper quality should be flawless. Unlike coins, a lot of currency is not even printed with the chance of becoming a gem.CHOICE UNCIRCULATED – (64-65)Usual Characteristics: no folds, less than perfect centering, counting mark or smudge, corner tip foldChoice uncirculated notes will have no folds that run into the design. They may possess a small corner tip fold. For an otherwise perfect note to get a 63 or 64 it will have centering problems, meaning the margins are lopsided. A choice uncirculated note could also suffer from counting marks, smudges, or rough handling, all of which are explained below.CRISP UNCIRCULATED (CU) - (59-63)Usual Characteristics: no folds, less than perfect centering, light counting mark or smudge, corner fold or very light foldA note that has not been released into circulation and is in the same condition as it was first produced. The paper must be firm and crisp, without any creases, folds or tears, and the corners must be sharp and square.ABOUT UNCIRCULATED (AU) - (50-58)Usual Characteristics: at most two light folds, corner folds, rough handling, minor noticeable flawA note that at first glance might appear as Uncirculated, but closer examination discloses the slightest signs of handling, some minor corner folds, a light (not hard) crease, a slight finger smudge or some pinholes. Paper is still crisp and bright and has original sheen. About uncirculated notes run the gamut from two very light folds on the low end, to a flaw so minor that it may barely be noticeable on the high end. In reality AU notes will likely not have seen any real time in circulation. Most flaws will be from poor storage or handling over many years. An AU note should be all about eye appeal. One can generally enjoy a full bodied AU even margined note for less than half the cost of its gem counterpart.EXTRA FINE (XF) - (40-45)Usual Characteristics: 2 or 3 vertical folds, very lightly circulated, very visually pleasing, no discolorationPaper is clean and bright with original sheen. Light handling is apparent, with several light folds or one strong crease visible. Tears and stains are not present. Extremely fine notes will likely have seen very little to no actual circulation. Your standard XF note will have 3 vertical folds, usually from poor storage, or several bends it may have picked up over time. Extremely fine notes should have good color and paper quality.VERY FINE (VF) - (30-35)Usual Characteristics: a few of folds, lightly circulated, maybe a smudge or rough handling, fairly crisp paperStill an attractive note, but with more pronounced wear from handling, though some crispness remains. May have several vertical and horizontal folds as well as slight dirt or smudging visible. No tears on the edges, though the corners are not as sharp as Uncirculated. High grade very fine notes can be a great way to get an attractive original note for a fraction of the price of their uncirculated cousins. Buyer beware though, very fine notes are often subject to washing to increase their eye appeal. If you hold a raw very fine note if should feel strong and thick. It will have noticeable folds but it should be very presentable otherwise.VERY FINE (VF) - (20-25)Usual Characteristics: multiple folds, above average wear, used but fully intactWhen looking at a note you think may be a low grade very fine, be sure to look for repairs and tears that may not be obvious on just a casual look. A low grade very fine note will tend to pancake when held in hand, the original crispiness just will not be there. When seeking rarity you may have to settle for a low grade very fine note. The average note pulled from circulation would likely grade a 20 or 25.FINE (F) - (12-15)Usual Characteristics: little crispiness, somewhat leathered look, numerous folds, faded colorsConsiderable circulation is apparent, with creases, folds and wrinkles visible, and most, if not all, of the crispness is gone. Edges show evidence of circulation, and there may be slight tears. Some fading of color noticeable, with some staining possible. A note in fine grade generally has the appearance as if has been balled up and worn in a gym sock for a week and then straightened back out. A fine note will have no crispiness and a leathered look. Expect beat up corners and faded colors in this grade. One positive thing about a fine note is that you generally know what you are getting into, even based on a scan.VERY GOOD (VG) - (8-10)Usual Characteristics: minor tears, no body, very well worn, not much eye appealAn obviously well-circulated bank note with much creasing, folding and wrinkling noticeable. Note may be dirty, and corners may show much wear and rounding, and some tears may be present, though no pieces of the note should be missing. A very good note will have more wear and less eye appeal than a fine note, but it will lack a significant flaw that good notes will have. Generally speaking, a very good note will be dirty but not totally trashed. For common very good notes there will not be a big price difference from the 8-15 range, so it would be advised to buy the one that has the most eye appeal over the one that may have the higher technical grade.GOOD (G) - (4)Usual Characteristics: serious problems – very dirty – missing corners – splitting margins, tearsA heavily circulated note with characteristics similar to Very Good except with more pronounced soiling and considerable wear and tear. Corners of the note may also be missing. Typically, good notes are collected only as a second thought, usually by people who just fancy having “some old paper money.” Good notes were usually picked out of circulation after many years. They are readily available on ebay and you won’t need a second mortgage to get a full type set together. Good notes are great if you are trying to get a child in the hobby or if you want to collect as cheap as possible._-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_EXAMPLES & TERMSHandling – Handling is a generic term that can refer to counting marks, pinches or smudgesCounting Marks – very light bends going into the note that aren’t foldsPinches – are similar to counting marks but they occur internally on the noteSmudges – are the result of skin contact to ink surfacesOriginality – means the paper has not been pressed or washed and embossing and paper wave should be presentEmbossing – is when the note’s printing can be felt on the other side of the note, this should be especially present around the serial numbers and treasury sealPaper Wave – refers to the light ripples that should go across the top and bottom of a note, this is a result of wet paper drying after the printing process_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_ Items always ship well protected, insured, and the same or next day after receiving clear paymentREAL Legal Tender Currency Please pay within 4 days of purchase We ship 7 days a week, and the same or next day of receiving clear payment.
