According to the U.S. Currency Auctions’ Pricing guide, depending on certain factors, a $2 bill — aka the “Tom” with its portrait of third U.S. President Thomas Jefferson — could be worth a lot more, even up to $5,000.
The U.S. Currency Auctions estimates in its guide that uncirculated $2 bills from before 1917 could fetch more than $1,000.
The guide notes that uncirculated bills from 1890, featuring a red seal, could be worth upwards of $4,000.
That’s what I’m saying. Any old bill will be worth good money. Just because it’s a $2 bill doesn’t mean it’s worth more, it has to be old and in good condition too.
Exactly. A mint condition $1 or $20 from 100 years ago could also be worth a lot, especially if it’s a lower serial #, etc.
Same goes for things like $1000 bills, which they stopped printing in 1969.
