Yes, but you’ll probably only find one if you go to the bank and ask for it specifically. It’s very uncommon to see them in general circulation.

Uh... two dollar bills exist, but the Hank and Zarthusthra bills are novelty items. A dead cat can't sign as Treasurer of the US&A, at least not yet... but I'm sure there are people lobbying for that.

I have a friend that carries around 2 dollar bills regularly to pay for things. Why? Just because, he says.

Notice thats a federal reserve note, not a U.S.of A. note. At one times banks would print their own notes for currency.
I guess the fed reserve still does they just dont tell anybody.

Theres a link, anyway, @U.S. silver certificates they have pics of U.S. notes that are silver, 1 silver dollar,5 silver dollars etc.

Thats actually a great way to see just how much the currency has devalued.

A $1 silver certificate note is now about $7 in silver.
Takes 7 $1 paper notes to buy the same amount of silver.

Thats a huge drop in purchasing power.

When saving for grandkids save metal not paper. lol

I have a $5 bill Confederate money from the south. I also have a silver coin from America 1797. Thanks a bunch of coins. I also used to collect stamps. I have to stamp books from the 50s. Most Wanted staves are from 1950 all the way back to 1867. Currency in Stamps could tell you a lot about a country's culture.

There used to be a vending machine at work that would give change in dollar coins but wouldn't accept dollar coins as payment. Stupid piece of junk.Then again, I've also run into cashiers that wouldn't take those dollar coins either because #fake :roll: :roll: :roll:

There is a special place in collectors hearts for the 2 dollar bill. If the mint would change the reverse to iconic images the public would collect them.

A friend of mine worked at a liquor store. In about 6 years ago a guy came in and bought two cases of beer in silver Morgan dollars. He had a little over 30 of them. At that time I think they were going for about $25 a piece. Needless to say he put some cash in the register and took all the Morgans out.
