Description

Ranked #22 in 100 Greatest American Currency Notes, this note is not only rare, but especially so as it features the coveted trifecta: a low serial number, a high grade with Exceptional Paper Quality (EPQ+), and courtesy autographs. Discontinued nearly 90 years ago, it stands as the only $2 Federal Reserve Bank Note ever issued—and the last large-size $2 bill.

Known for its distinctive and eye-catching design, the obverse features a detailed portrait of President Thomas Jefferson, while the reverse showcases an intricate depiction of a World War I battleship. These elements, combined with its scarcity and premium features, make this note an extraordinary and highly collectible piece of American currency history.
