In the month Nada of the year Never.

It's a joke bill issued by a private company and is only worth a couple of bucks as a novelty item. Unfortunately many people are snookered into thinking it's real. In one case someone actually tried to make change (!!!) for one of these "bills".

My own opinion is that such mistakes are a VERY good reason to learn more about genuine U.S. currency so no one can cheat you.

What year did U.S. start printing paper money?

The U.S. started printing paper money in 1861 during the Civil War when the government issued demand notes to help finance the war effort. These notes were the first form of paper currency issued by the federal government. Prior to this, various banks issued their own notes, but this marked the beginning of a standardized national currency.


Is a 1771 two dollar bill worth anything?

A 1771 two-dollar bill does not exist, as the U.S. did not issue paper money until the late 1700s and the first two-dollar bills were printed in 1862. However, if you meant a 1776 Continental Currency note or a two-dollar bill from a later year, their value can vary widely based on condition, rarity, and demand among collectors. It's best to consult a currency expert or appraiser for an accurate valuation.

What year did the US used paper money?

1862 was the first year the US government officially issued paper money. However various other agencies, banks, etc. issued paper bills as far back as the Revolution. The Continental Congress famously issued "Continental Currency" to pay for the war. It had no backing and rapidly became worthless, leading to the expression "not worth a Continental" which remained in common use for decades afterwards.
