boinky 0 #4 March 2, 2009 The subject came up when this customer paid me in Silver Dollars. I was rather excited about them. I collect them, 50¢ pieces and other rare US monies. I mentioned my $2 bills. That's when he told me about the bank still having the the $2 bills.Nina Are we called "DAWGs" because we stick our noses up people's butts?

airtwardo 7 #6 March 2, 2009 Yup....there is a salvage place here in Houston that buys your scrap metal and always pays you in new 2 dollar bills. And my mother always has them on hand for some reason, I believe she has a standing order at the back and gets new uncirculated deuces every week, I always see her using two's for tipping at restaurants etc....in fact I have one folded up in my wallet now. ~ If you choke a Smurf, what color does it turn? ~ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
boinky 0 #7 March 2, 2009 Years ago, when I was a waitress, I had someone who would pay in $2 bills. They would do some sort of origami with it and leave it on the table.Nina Are we called "DAWGs" because we stick our noses up people's butts?

jtval 0 #10 March 2, 2009 QuoteSomeone told me that you can still get $2 bills from a bank if you ask for them. Does anyone know if this is true? If you know where to go you get can $500 and $1000 bills. I got a $500. they stopped making them in 1932 but its one of those "souvineers" that if I ever need some cash I can get to it quickly. I also have a $2. I keep in because when I was in Ga they used to give away free stuff in the commisary around christmas time one of the annaul announcements was "if you have a $2 bill we will give you (name of random product)"My photos My Videos Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
boinky 0 #11 March 2, 2009 I've got about 13 of them. Now I've found out they're not so special after all. I also have silver dollars, half dollars, bicentennial quarters, Susan B. Anthony dollars and random older coins in various denominations. And of course, I have one of those maps that you put one of all of those new quarters in.

Collecting them was fun, regardless of the eventual value. I started in 1999 making a book for myself and one for my father. Finished them last month, wrapped up the gift and shipped it to him.
