US Banknotes

The criteria for rare $2 bills are basically the same as that for any US banknote: its date, its condition, what letter if any is next to the date, and in some cases its seal color.

As a rule of thumb just about every $2 bill printed before 1928 is worth a moderate to significant premium, but you won't find one in change because they were issued as large-size "horseblanket" bills that no longer circulate.

$2 bills dated 1928 through 1963 are the same size as current notes but were printed with red seals. That makes them so unusual they're effectively no longer in circulation either. Most aren't very valuable but ones to look for at estate sales, etc. would be 1928 A and 1928 B.

Other 1928, 1953, and 1963 $2 bills are quite affordable with prices in the $5-$50 range.

Finally, any modern green-seal $2 bill is just an ordinary Federal Reserve Note worth only two bucks. Feel free to spend any and all that you get. They're interesting to use and save money for taxpayers because each bill does the work of one $1 bill.

Yes, It can be recycled into new currency

The front had a small picture of President Grover Cleveland in an oval frame positioned in the center of the bill. The number "1000" was in each corner and the border was decorated with ornate scrollwork.

The reverse side had similarly ornate scrollwork surrounding the words UNITED STATES OF AMERICA and ONE THOUSAND DOLLARS. The number "1000" appeared in each corner, tilted at a 45 degree angle. There was no scene or building as is common on lower-value bills.

The last US $1000 bills were printed in 1945, but all carried the series date 1934.

If you use a search engine to look for images, be aware that you may also find a lot of fantasy designs for more-modern $1000 bills but they're only concepts. None are real and so far the Treasury has said it has no plans to print new bills higher than $100.

Please check your bill again and post a new, separate question. There were no 1926-dated US $10 bills.

There were no $5 silver certificates issued that year, only United States Notes. Please see the question "What is the value of a 1907 US 5 dollar bill?" for more information.

The US didn't print any $100 bills dated 1973. Please check again and post a new, separate question.

No.

It's not a US Treasury product. It's either:

> a genuine bill that's been coated with gold foil by a private company, in which case it has no collector value and is only worth $100 or

> a completely separate product, again privately made; it's only worth a couple of bucks for the gold foil.

five-hundred dollars

Two dollars, perhaps a bit more in exceptional condition. But modern two dollar bills are simply worth face value unless they are in mint condition, in which case they could be worth a lot more. Also, if the serial number of the bill is unusual or it is a star note, that could also increase the value of it. But if it has been folded, ripped, gotten wet, or otherwise defaced, it isn't worth more than $2.

2.6 Inches by 6.1 Inches are the dimensions for the U.S. dollar bill.

Please check your bill again and post a new, separate question.

The last US silver certificates were $1 bills dated 1957. 1996-dated bills were $20, $50, and $100 Federal Reserve Notes and none of these have any extra value in circulated condition.

yes

At the BANK..... Where else. Call before you go, most times they will have some available. If you want a larger amount of them, like I get, you will have to call the bank up and ask them to order them. They come in $200 straps - 100 $2 bills.

F3 is almost certainly a plate position indicator, and as such doesn't identify the bill or affect its value.

Please see the Related Question for more information about the value of a 1963 $2 US Note.

The US didn't print any $10 silver certificates in 1929, only National Currency notes.

Please post a new question with the bill's seal color and whether there is a small letter next to the date. You don't need to provide the serial number, however.

According to the US Bureau of Engraving and Printing, the average life of a $1 bill is now 42 months. Improvements in the production process have increased that from a previous 18 to 24 month lifespan.

Please check your bill again. As the banner across the top indicates, it's a silver certificate, not gold. All gold certificates were withdrawn in 1933.

There's more information at the question "What is the value of a 1957 US 1 dollar silver certificate?"

It's extremely doubtful. The 1934 series ended in the late 1940s so the chances that a bill would survive that long in general circulation are extremely low. Banks remove worn currency and return it to the Treasury for destruction, and it's also very possible that any old bill could be snapped up as a keepsake, collectible, or curiosity before it's removed by a bank.

About the only way you'd find one in circulation would be if someone had old bills saved away somewhere (a drawer, shoebox, etc.) and spent them at face value, AND you were next in line to receive them in change. That scenario can and does happen.

It's worth noting that except for gold certificates, the Treasury has never withdrawn or demonetized any standard-issue paper money. No matter how old a bill is it's still technically legal tender at face value. Of course spending a collectible bill at face value isn't really a smart financial move!

That note is a known replica, worth maybe 50 cents.

Generally yes, but it depends very much on their dates. Bills from the final series (dated 1957) are so common among collectors that even half a century later they're only worth $1.50 or so in average condition.

Older silver certificates' values vary widely, so at a minimum a date and series letter are needed to estimate a value.

The last silver certificates were printed with the date 1957. No US bills are dated 1998. Please check again and post a new question.
