Great installment. I collect two dollar bills two way. Large Size by type. Small size by series. My type collection is complete except I need a "Lazy Deuce". My small size series collection is complete. Maybe you could do a spot on the "Lazy Deuce". You may have done that in one of your past episodes. As to packs of stars I have tried and tried to get a pack of stars to no avail. Keep up the updates.
Great video as always. I only have the one $2. I’m in the UK and bought it on eBay (probably double it’s value) but I just really like them! And it’s all down to your videos. Won’t be buying anymore, but I do treasure the one I have.
I 💘😻love $2.00 bills. I have number of them, and recently got some from the bank,
from circulation of recent issue. I have them
back to the 1928 Red Seal notes.
I've know people to do that with 50 cent pieces hoping that they will be silver many times they are. From the bank that is.
I always give my favorite bartender a $2 bill, last time I gave her a red seal note just because I could.
man! as a beginner bill collector, you are killing me!
Thanks for the information.
Thank you so much for this information.
I find Banks that sell $2.00 bills and I spend them. They are cool to have and spend in Texas. I drive to Abilene, TX from Gatesville, TX sadly i have to drive 1-5 hours and opening up an account just to buy them!
I've got over 1300 two dollar bills so yes they are still printing them .
I have almost every single friedberg number both large and small $2 bills. The only small notes that will really have value are unlikely to be found at a bank, you will have to hunt through eBay and currency shows and even then it will be hard to find what you are looking for after a while. Stars from the bank are good only if you keep them in great condition. Once it’s spent it will be worth a lot less over face value. Spend the loose bank ones for fun
You can go to vystar bank. They usually have a good amount
I think the average American is a 2 dollar bill collector...

How much is a 2 dollar bill in different currencies? Do other currencies have 2s
You mean other countries? That video is right here: czcams.com/video/hemF9KXDvbs/video.html
H 1 A başlayan 1976 yılında basılmış 2 dolar var değeri nekadar eder
Are the older bills in the 1990’s as rare ad the two dollar bill
Nope.
I wanted to ask you this back in the difference in the 1966-1976 2 dollar bill is that Why did they still ekpt the red seal even thought it should be a green seal on the rest of the money?
This clip might answer it: czcams.com/video/5AdKp5SPHKM/video.html Red seals are United States notes and green are Federal Reserve notes.
@@TheTwoDollarBillDocumentary Well I was saying that when it was 1966 it had random bill like a silver cetificate green seal and red seal so why is all random but thanks for the help.
@@LuisHernandez-pt7xw There was nothing random about it.
The Series 1976 and later $2 notes have green seals and serial numbers to indicate that they are Federal Reserve Notes.
The $2 notes with the 'Monticello' backs were United States Notes which bore red seals and serial numbers. The last United States Notes were the Series 1966 $100.
Silver Certificates were replaced with FRN from Series 1963 onward.
Back in the day, there were different types of currency in the U.S. with different backing / obligations;
United States Notes were backed by bonds held in the U. S. Treasury
Silver Certificates were backed by silver held in the U.S. Treasury.
Federal Reserve Notes are 'fiat currency'
From 1928 onward the color codes were:
Federal Reserve - Green seal and numbers
Silver Certificates - Blue seal and numbers
United States Note - Red seal and numbers
Gold Certificates - Yellow seal, numbers
Legal Tender Notes (FRBN) - Brown seal, numbers
There were special notes issued during WW2 for use in North Africa (yellow seal Silver Certificates) and Hawaii (Silver Certs and FRN with brown seal, 'HAWAII' overprint).
From the 1970s onward, only Federal Reserve Notes have been commonly seen in circulation. On rare occasion an old 'red seal' $2 or $5 will show up or a $1 Silver Certificate (blue).
@@TheTwoDollarBillDocumentary I just starting collecting My 2 dollar bill already and I buy The 2 dollar bill documentary movie already Sir
Will 2s be made again? And if they do, when?
Will they be made again? They just made more last year! They will continue making them. If you want to know why, watch this video on our channel: czcams.com/video/_Bzg9pNVePk/video.html
Are there any 3 or 4 dollar bills
They were going to make a $3 bill back in 1862, but ultimately did not. There are no $3 or $4 bills, as you probably know.
How much more rare is the $500 bill then the $2 dollar bill
They haven't made the $500 in a long while, and they still make $2s, so there is a big rarity disparity. This video goes into a little detail. czcams.com/video/p_W1dEOjJ6M/video.html
How much can I get if I have a 2 packs of $2.00 1801to 2000
What does 1801 to 2000 mean? Is that the last 4 digits of the serial number? Your bills are probably not worth more than $2 each, although some collectors may pay a bit more for so many in sequence.
There ain't no money in paper. That $200 Red Note at $18 per note is $1,800. 75 years ago, Gold was $35 ounce. So today that same $200 would be $11,000! That's a terrible investment.
Can't disagree, but any investment you can make a few bucks out of isn't all bad.
@@TheTwoDollarBillDocumentary Agree if you can buy and turn around and sell it quick for a buck. That's fine. But I'm not holding paper long term except for a personal souvenir.
There not rate I just got ten today
Who said they were rare? I'm ALWAYS telling people, in nearly every video, that $2 bills are not rare.
He said buying two dollar bills are a terrible investment... I disagree because no matter what happens they will always have face value $
It's a terrible investment in that the value will not increase. Yes, you'll always have the face value, but would you buy a stock if it never budged up or down? That's his point.
