Once dismissed as “cursed” or unlucky, the $2 bill is turning out to be a hidden treasure in plain sight. While many Americans believe it’s out of circulation, the U.S. Treasury still prints them — and some are worth hundreds or even thousands of dollars to collectors.
Bills with rare serial numbers, printing errors, or special years can fetch shocking prices online. Even a crisp, uncirculated note could bring in far more than face value. So before you spend that oddball bill sitting in your wallet, take a closer look — that so-called unlucky $2 might just be your lucky break.
