Serial Numbers
A bill's serial number is a counter and a security feature. In most cases it doesn't affect a bill's value or help to identify it. Some collectors specialize in bills with low serial numbers (e.g. 00000005) or unusual patterns (12344321) so these can bring above-average prices.
DISCLAIMER: The values quoted are market averages as of the date shown, but may be different for an individual bill due to variations in quality and other factors. Also the wholesale (buying) price of a bill will be less than the selling (retail) price. A reputable currency dealer will be able to give a more accurate valuation based on an in-person inspection.

What year were US silver certificates removed from circulation?
Silver certificates were never officially withdrawn. After the price of silver was deregulated the Treasury simply stopped redeeming them for silver metal and declared them to be equivalent to Federal Reserve Notes, with no precious-metal equivalency.
Silver certificates gradually wore out and were replaced by new FRNs during the normal course of currency replacement. They occasionally showed up in circulation well into the 1970s, possibly later in some parts of the country.
Are two dollar bills from the 1940s and 1950s worth anything beyond face value?
no
MoreActually, YES, but not a huge amount. It depends on the bills' conditions and series dates. You can find some representative values at the Related Question.And FWIW, there aren't any US bills with series dates in the 1940s. Back then the practice was to run a "series" until there was a major design change, and because bills weren't redesigned very often in the mid-20th century, a single series could run for as much as 30 years without a date change.
What is the value of a 1923 US 1000000 dollar silver certificate?
No US Million dollar notes were ever issued. You have a novelty item that sells for a couple of bucks in gift shops and dollar stores.
The largest US bill ever printed for circulation was $10,000, and the largest ever printed (but not circulated) was $100,000.
What makes a US 2 dollar bill rare?
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.
How much will a 2 dollar bill be worth in 2020?
/* Well any item is projected to increase in value by 10% over a course of ten years. Since $2 bills are worth about $2.50 now, in 2020 they will be worth about $3. So if I were you and had one, I would hold on to it until 3000 when it would be worth around $1,500. */
Not Quite
Current US $2 bills (1976 and later) have no added collector value in circulated condition, and are not expected to increase. Even though they make up less than 1% of all bills in circulation that's still tens of millions of bills, so they're simply too common to be collectors' items.
What does a US 1000 dollar bill look like?
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.

Are 1934 US 20 dollar bills in circulation?
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!
How much is a 1976 twoo dollar bill worth?
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.
What are the dimensions of a dollar bill?
2.6 Inches by 6.1 Inches are the dimensions for the U.S. dollar bill.
