The
United States two-dollar bill ($2) is a current
denomination of U.S. currency. The third
U.S. President (1801–09),
Thomas Jefferson, is featured on the
obverse of the note. The
reverse features a reproduction of the painting
The Declaration of Independence by
John Trumbull. Throughout the $2 bill's pre-1929 life as a large-sized note, it was issued as a
United States Note,
National Bank Note,
silver certificate, and
Treasury or "Coin" Note. When U.S. currency was changed to its current size, the $2 bill was issued only as a United States Note.
Production went on until 1966, when the series was discontinued. Ten years went by before the $2 bill was reissued as aFederal Reserve Note with a new reverse design. $2 bills are seldom seen in circulation as a result of banking policies with businesses which has resulted in low production numbers due to lack of demand. This comparative scarcity in circulation, coupled with a lack of public awareness that the bill is still in circulation, has also inspired
urban legends and occasionally has created problems for people trying to use the bill to make purchases.
Like I said.... The bills still exist but they havent been in
CIRCULATION, meaning new prints like i said before...
