Long story short... Picked up 3 worn $2 bills from bank of America yesterday. I've never seen 1 so worn. Dunkin donuts guy told me 1 of the 2 I was using this morning was fake because coloring in corners. Is he correct? And if so, am I out $2 or will bank take it back? He seemed to imply that he's seen this before and banks let them slide through as he wasn't calling FBI on me.   |

Looks like a normal worn $2 bill to me.

He's full of it. That is just a highly worn bill that someone probably spilt their dunkin donuts coffee on!

It looks real, just really worn.

Bank tellers would NEVER turn a counterfeit bill back into circulation...and are MUCH better trained to spot them than a Dunkin Donuts employee  I know as when I was much younger I worked at a bank for a few years. I can still spot them and very quickly. |

Your guy sounds full of it. You sure he knows that $ bills are real? Sounds like a sarcastic question..but seriously a lot of people have never seen one.

It looked legit to me besides being really worn. Figured he wasn't an expert.--just try to not discount knowledge because it's coming from a drive  line at dunks. He did seem to have a little sparkle when--handed him the $2 bills, so thought maybe he was a collector. |

The bank teller did do a double take look at them before handing them to me and said are you sure you want these.--thought maybe they were older because of the condition and it's always fun to spend them regardless.

You have a well worn, genuine $2 bill.
The donut guy has been eating too many donuts and it has affected his thought processes.

The guy just didn't want to accept the bill. Maybe cause he didn't have a spot in his draw or somthing.

Real note btw once u leave the bank thats it u can't come back and say it's fake and expect to get exchange it. What will happen is the teller will take it from u and make u fill out form and explain what happen then they'll ship the fake note & form to the secrect service then after a long investigation they will replace the note I know this because I wrk for a bank & so far I fill out and ship,fake notes to the secrect service a crap load of times. An other thing bank teller will give u a counterfeit bill because if they didn't catch it and later found out they accept a counterfeit bill they will be short that money from their till & take a loss so to avoid being in trouble with there manager they will give it out so always check your bills before u leave the teller window

It's genuine, but been through heck and back. Nice to see a $2 bill that has done its job.
