They've always been legal tender, but people usually keep them with the result that they do not circulate.

Contrary to many internet rumors and other popular misconceptions, the US $2 bill has never been discontinued, recalled, or declared worthless. In fact a new print run was recently ordered, although the bills all carry the date 2013 because that's the year that the current Treasury Secretary took office.

In fact, you should try to get and spend $2 bills because they save money for taxpayers. Every $2 bill that's spent instead of using two $1 bills means that many fewer $1 bills have to be printed!

$2 bills only make up about 1% of all US bills in circulation but that's still hundreds of millions of bills. They're not rare, just uncommon.
