Have a $2 bills? Their value might surprise you!

If you have a $2 bill tucked away somewhere, it might be worth more than just its face value. While not commonly seen in daily transactions, the $2 bill has a fascinating history that dates back to the Civil War era. First introduced in 1862, it was created to help alleviate the shortage of coins, which were in high demand during the war. Over the years, the bill has undergone multiple design changes, featuring different historical figures and landmarks that reflect America’s evolving identity,

Despite its unique status, the $2 bill has often been met with mixed public perception. At various points in history, people believed it was unlucky or associated it with gambling and bribery, leading to its lower circulation. In the 1920s and 1930s, collectors began taking an interest in the bill, driving up its value. However, by the 1950s, demand had once again decreased, and many viewed it as an oddity rather than a functional piece of currency.
