A little after we closed Friday night, my office clerk called me and said I got a 2$ bill that's different from the rest of them. I liked hearing that and went back to the cash room and this was on the counter:

Someone bought a lotto ticket with it, and I picked it up for face. I know it's only worth 2$ but I thought it was cool. I love picking up old currency and coins for face. There's been a tremendous amount of world coins show up as people cash in the old coin jars too.

Nice pickup for face value and appears to be in very crisp condition for being 46 years old.

That is a very sweet bill. I went into the bank today and asked for the usual 2009-cents, rolls of halves, etc, all no, but I was told I have these $2-dollar bills and one is old, the same bill as you have posted above, except it is dated 1953, very happy , the other dated 1976, the red seal is very nice and the reverse is a work of art, just like the one above, and all for $4.00.......

NICE pickup!!

I don't collect these but when I over paid for shipping on a ebay coin, the dealer paid me back with these. I thought it was a very cool thing to do! And so, I've kept them. (This might mean the start of another collection!!? You never know...)
