Pennypusher Valued Member United States 486 Posts	Posted 05/03/2008 9:41 pm I saw a really cool bill that I think was a two dollar bill. It looked like it was from the 19th century. The note had a very large horizontal dark number 2 across the front. I thought the note was really cool looking. What bill fits this description? -PP Report this Post to the Staff

Frank Valued Member United States 151 Posts	Posted 05/04/2008 09:46 am Sounds like you are describing the "Lazy Two". It's a national bank note from the 1860's. Frank Report this Post to the Staff
