when did the first 2 dollar bill come out?
march 1862
the denomination of two dollars was authorized under a congressional act, and first issued in march 1862. the denomination was continuously used until 1966; by this time the united states note was the only remaining class of u.s. currency the two-dollar bill was assigned to. in august 1966, the treasury department discontinued production of the $2 and $5 denominations of united states notes. while the $5 denomination had long been issued simultaneously as both a federal reserve note and united states note, the $2 denomination was not immediately reassigned to the federal reserve note class of united states currency and was thus fully discontinued. the treasury cited the two-dollar note's low use as the reason for not immediately resuming use of the denomination. in 1976, production of the two-dollar denomination was resumed and the two-dollar bill was finally assigned as a federal reserve note, with a new reverse design featuring john trumbull's depiction of the drafting of the united states declaration of independence replacing the previous design of monticello. it has remained a current denomination since that time. it was estimated that if two-dollar notes replaced approximately half of the one-dollar notes in circulation, the federal government would be able to save about $26 million in 1976 dollars ($ adjusted for inflation) over the period from 1976 to 1981, due to reduced production, storage, and shipping costs.
