Got a two dollar bill in change today.

Was a beat up series 1995, but still, was kinda neat.

  • I haven't seen a twosie in circulation in ages. Have plenty of red seal ones and 1976 issues, already though. Do they print those every year??

    Come to the Seattle area (a little east of Seattle actually) and you may get some of the CU 2003 $2 notes I have been spending......I like watching young kids look at them like they are counterfeit and can figure it out....and older people just saying "wow! haven't seen one of these in years".

    That, and spending Sacs and Ikes has been entertaining lately (6 Ikes spent at McD's drive through today in a small town with a kid cashier....he says to his shift mgr, "man, these are heavy" image )

    I spend 'em, but I just don't get 'em back in change.

    I've been told I tolerate fools poorly...that may explain things if I have a problem with you. Current ebay items - Nothing at the moment

    I can't remember the last time I got one in change. That's neat.

    New collectors, please educate yourself before spending money on coins; there are people who believe that using numismatic knowledge to rip the naïve is what this hobby is all about.

    My barber charges $12 for a haircut. He doesn't keep a separate slot in his cash register for $10s, instead he stocks it with $2 bills.

    I bank in downtown Chicago and for years I have been getting uncirculated packs of $2's. Great for cabbies and bartenders...they always remember you as "the 2 guy"!! Also a cool thing a few years ago 4 of us took a guy's 4 day weekend vacation in the Carivbbean and used 2's for everything...by the 4th day we were getting them back as change from vendors!!
