The 2 dollar bill has post stamps on them because when they were released to the bank and stamped that day. The banks did this so the 2 dollar bill could be canceled on that date.

Should dollar coins replace the dollar bills?

Yes. I don't know about other people but I think it would be easier because, 1.People can write on dollar bills and totally ruin the dollar bill. 2. People could hold all their money in a money pouch. 3. If you don't have a wallet and you put your dollar bill in the same pocket as your change, so when you pull out your dollar bill all the change will spill everywhere.


What is the value of a two dollar bill with a stamp and postmark on it?

On Ebay it looks as if they could be worth anywhere from about six bucks to over twenty. I have 10 consecutive NY ones and I am sure they are worth more. I may have another ten too if I can put my hands on them! They did one day of this bicentennial stamp with postmark at the post office on Tuesday April 13th 1976. Kinda cool.. Good luck!

What is a 1999 one dollar bill without a serial number and seal of the treasury stamp missing worth?

US bills are printed in multiple passes, and sometimes a pass is accidentally missed so the parts of the image put on by that step are missing; there's also the possibility that they were printed but on the wrong side of the bill. Your best approach would be to have the bill evaluated by a dealer or appraiser who's familiar with error currency. In any case, without seeing it, a ballpark estimate for a missing seal could range anywhere from $200 to $500 depending on the specific cause of the error.
