Did you know that $2 bills are NOT rare currency? How about the fact that if you want one, you can just go to the bank? In this never-before-seen raw footage from our documentary shoot in Michigan, we walked into a bank and got $100 in twos with no issue. Look closely - they're crisp & sequential too!

I used to work at an airport as a cashier. Every so often, some old folks would pay with two-dollar bills and try telling me that they are rare. It got to the point where I didn't feel like arguing with them or correcting them, so I just let them go on about their day thinking that they wowed me by paying with two-dollar bills.

I recently received an older $20 from my bank and went to Arby's for lunch. I paid with the bill and the order taker called the manager over and she grabbed the bill and disappeared to the office. Reappeared 3 minutes later and gave me change and my lunch. For a minute there I thought she was going to call the cops.

I’m in the UK, and occasionally you can find American money (both coins and bills) in coinstar machines, either lying around the coin feed or in the rejected coins slot - I found a $2 bill there once - someone had tried rolling it up and trying to jam it into the coin feed. I’ve still got it somewhere, I think it’s in an old wallet up in the loft.

Am I high or did this guy just get ripped off? He wanted $100 worth of $2 bills, the teller counted them at face value (2, 4 , 6, 8) until he got to 50...that is only $50 dollars right? He would need 50 individual $2 dollar bills to equal $100 right? If you count each bill he lays down he gives this guy 25 individual bills. That's only 50 dollars. Someone back me up here lol

You're not high, but if you notice when the count gets to 38, we cut to a close up of Steve's face. This is the only edit made during this transaction. The teller actually counted out two sets of $50, but we used the repetition of him counting each set out to make an edit so it seemed like he only counted out one set. There was no reason to subject the audience to having to watch him count out twice as many bills (the point that the bank had $2 bills was made), so we did what's called a "pull up" in editing lingo and smoothly shortened the transaction some. Nice catch though! That hadn't been brought to our attention yet, and we didn't realize this loss of logic until you pointed it out. Kudos.

According to my experience, $2000 is what you need to order for the bank to order them from the treasury...that is the minimum they can order. This is different than what they may have in the vault, or at other branches. If you want the bills, tell them you want $2000 and they CAN order them. Don't let them tell you otherwise. Speak to a manager if need be. Before knowing this, I actually had one bank thank me for taking their twos, as they "couldn't get rid of them". One would think a bank would go through enough cash that they would use them in place of say, $10's. When you get 1000 2's brand new, in sequence, or a fair number of $2 star bills in sequence, it's pretty neat.
@TheTwoDollarBillDocumentary
@TheTwoDollarBillDocumentary 5 жыл бұрын
That minimum is based on a bank not wanting to be inconvenienced. You can order as little as a strap of $100 if you want. Just tell the bank you're doing a charity event or something and you need the bills for that. What you need is what you need. If they cant accommodate, tell them you will have to consider banking elsewhere.

@@TheTwoDollarBillDocumentary I probably wasnt clear. If the bank physically has to order Bill's because they nor any of their other branches have what you want, their minimum order for 2's is $2000 worth. Here is the link specifying the minimum order quantity per denomination www.frbservices.org/resources/financial-services/cash/depositing-ordering/currency.html FWIW I wouldnt know this if a relative isnt a branch manager at a bank. And like many others posting below, I would have blindly accepted the "we dont have any nor can we get any" response I received before.

@@dcxdanny I think part of it is that the smaller banks don't have the assets nor resources to hold or shift $2s around branches for one guy that wants a few. One of the branches initially had $900 worth they were happy to give me as they said they hadn't been able to get rid of them. Many of the major banks I refuse to do business with. I'll take some inconvenience with smaller institutions, over the major players policies and fees.

As for requesting a special order at a bank that you _are_ a member of, you are right, they must take a request for a special order as long as it is within reason.

OMG!!! Here is what's SUPER Rare. In the opening of the video there is a stack of five straps of $2 bills. The paper wrap around each one says Twos. And on the edges there is a thick green border. The solid green borders are 100 crisp, uncirculated two dollar bills. The broken green borders are 100 crisp, uncirculated two dollar STAR NOTES! Three bundles (straps) of them. You'll never see one of those in your lifetime, let alone three of them.

What you're looking at there are stacks of bills being put into a glass case at a currency trade show, by a dealer. The stacks are indeed star notes, and because they're as rare as you say, the dealer who has them is putting them on display with the hopes of selling them to a trade show visitor that day. I believe the dealer in this case is Fred Bart of Executive Currency (executivecurrency.com), and I'm sure he still has plenty of those if you wanted to buy some. Tell him we sent you.

Hi! Although I have to say I'm a bit envious you're able to get a considerably high number of $2 bills, it's still strange you had to make the effort to visit several locations to collect what is a low denomination bill. Anyway, I'm just wondering if you support the idea of a circulating dollar coin. I certainly do and for better or worse, it's availability is limited at TD Bank. I understand your appreciation of a sporadically produced $2, but would you respect possible congressional legislation for a circulating $2 coin that could be signed by the president because the equivalent of such is regularly circulated in Canada, Australia, New Zealand, the Eurozone and the UK?
@TheTwoDollarBillDocumentary
@TheTwoDollarBillDocumentary 2 жыл бұрын
I'd be fine with a $2 coin, but it won't happen because the dollar coin has already proven that people won't use it. Heck, they don't even use $2 paper money, as this channel so often speaks about (and tries to change). I fully support a dollar coin, and the U.S. has made several efforts to get one out there with little luck as far as consumer acceptance. The $2 bill, with its rich history and gorgeous design, has allowed for many misconceptions. My full documentary on the bill (available on the channel) will open your eyes to the fact that it's more than just a "low denomination bill". It has nostalgic factors and other elements that make it much more special than any recently-produced dollar coin. I admire all of these different pieces of coin and currency, but my sentiment towards the two is the impetus for this channel.

They will order them if you ask them to. In this video, you may notice that the teller had an even stack of 100 (he still counted them out though). That's because they come in that way, whether ordered by the bank for their own purposes or because a customer requested them. So go back to that bank and ask them to order them - they really can't turn you down unless they want to be difficult. Order 100 and then you'll have nice, clean, crisp and sequential bills to use for those gifts.

People giving them as gifts and holding onto them is the reason they're so rare when they're actually not that rare, they have no velocity as they dont circulate as much as $1s. There's only 10 times as many $1s as there are $2s but people see a lot more than ten times as many $1s, maybe the fed should just bring the numbers up to the same as $1s and then they will circulate far more.
