I have several $2 bills that I would like to use. Can I still use them?
Thanks to ALL of you!
Answer:
no, they're worthless. You should send them all to me and I will properly dispose of them for you.
Yes they are still considered legal tender.
Yup! Take em to a bank. BTW, that's not orange dye ink on those notes is it??
Of course you can use them! They're still legal tender and places will take them as payment. You can always just cash them in at the bank if you'd rather do that.
You can use them. It's the $3.00 Bill Clinton bills that are worthless.
ya u kan but u kan sell them for 5$ ea.
Yes you can use them
Take them to your local bank and see if they well take them and give you face value for them. I know my children used to get them as gifts. A lot of stores frown on them as they really have no slot for them in the drawer, but the bank always took them.
Yeah of course you can use it, I spent a $2 bill about a month ago and it was no problem.
Stop believing everything you hear
they are just fine to use.have you ever seen $1 or $5 (or other) bills where someone has written on them? they are still legal tender.
Yeah its legal tender but young people might think it is fake, Like I used a suzan b dollar and the woman was like it was fake.
They are still good to spend, a few ink marks shouldnt stop someone from accepting them as payment
yes you may still use them. Take them to the strip club, strippers love $2 bills :) or McDonalds, that will buy you 2 sandwichs, just bring an extra quarter for tax's.
One day about five years ago, I got two $2 bills in change, in two different transactions at two different places in DC. People still spend buffalo nickels and old-style $20 bills.
Actually 2 dollar bills are becoming more popular as time goes on. I actually have received them recently from fast food places and even banks. They may become as popular as the 1 dollar bill in the future.So yes
Yes you can. in fact you can still get $2 bills at banks.
As long as the serial number is legible they are still usable.
To be certain take them to your bank and tell them you want to change them because of the facts you mentioned.
Yes, you can still use it. The bank will take it out of circulation once you bring it to them. Think of it this way, you can still use a bill that has been torn and taped back together, or a bill missing a corner, so in the same spirit, you are able to use the $2.
to make it easy on you I would suggest that you take them to the bank and trade them in for some other bills $1.or $5. it depends on how many you have but before you do that I would check them out with a coin dealer to make sure their o no valuef
Auction them on ebay - why only get $2 for them. Someone out there might pay more if they collect them.
Yes, you can still spend them. If they are very old, they might have some collector value and be worth more than $2 each.
Damaged bills can be accepted by the banks, as long as there is more than half the bill remaining.
You can still get new $2 bills today, ask at your bank.
Be certain that what you have aren't Two Dollar silver certificates instead of Two Dollar 'bills'.
I, too, inherited some $2.00 'bills' (from a Grandparent), but upon closer inspection I discovered that they were printed 'way back when' and stated on the face something like 'This instrument is redeemable for two dollars in silver coin . . .". Since the U.S. Mint no longer does this (redeem paper for silver at face value) these 'bills' have become collector items if in good condition. If they've been defaced as yours have been, they no longer have any interest for collectors (hence your being told that they are 'of no value'). They are still, however, legal tender and therefore worth $2.00 to a commercial entity.
As an aside, I was at an auction recently where a 2000 'Golden' Sacagawea dollar went for $8.00. It was all I could do to keep from jumping up and yelling, "It's a Dollar! It's worth a Dollar! You can get one at any bank in the country FOR A DOLLAR!" Still, I guess it's actually 'worth' what someone is willing to pay for it so you might try to do something like that with your currency to see if you can get more than face value for them.

Bob, that is really funny. The Sacagawega and Susan B. Anthony coins are used in the PATH train turnstiles where I live, so everyone I know and every local business has stacks of them.
Late one night I was watching tv and one of those info-commercials came on. They were selling 4 Susan B. Anthony coins for $24.95. Only $24.95 for $4 dollars. What a deal, lol.
