Best Answer

The first US $2 bill was issued in July 1862 as a United States Note with a portrait of Alexander Hamilton. Over the years it has undergone numerous redesigns and in 1929 when all US currency was downsized to present day size the familar portrait of Thomas Jefferson found its place on the obverse of the $2 bill. The $2 bill was officially discontinued in 1966. However, in 1976, the Treasury department again issued the $2 bill with the design of the bicentennial. Subsequent printings have been made in most series years, with the most recent (as of this writing) being the 2013 series.
