Making Expressive 2 Dollar Bills

When we go to a store many of us pay for our goods by cash if we don’t have our credit cards with us. We are very familiar with the different money values that we see regularly. These urban legends or folktales have all inspired the myth that the 2 dollar bill is not what you would consider as being real money.

Even though you will not see the 2 dollar bill all that much, there are some of these 2 dollar bills in circulation. In many cases the 2 dollar bill has become a collector’s item for the people who come across it. What this means is that because there are not many people using these dollar bills there is no real need to print out a large amount of 2 dollar bills. Instead you will find that various other items have been placed in the sections where the 2 dollar bill needs to go. There is another problem that you may run into when you try to use a 2 dollar bill.

There are still others who may feel that you are spending fake money. Therefore if you do come across a 2 dollar bill you might want to hang on to it until you can exchange it at the bank where they will not look at you funnily. You will see 50 dollar bills, 100 dollar bills and even 1 dollar bills.

This 50 dollar bill or “Grant” as it is also called has been given a face lift to deal with the many counterfeiters who like to use the real versions to see how they can make their own version of a 50 dollar bill. In this issue of the 50 dollar bill there is a stylized image in red and blue of the American flag. The reverse side of the 50 dollar bill shows an image of the capitol building and has it surrounded by a cloud of small gold stars.

These new designs have been added so that the people who like to print out fake money will have a hard time trying to duplicate american eagle coins. Added security that you can see on the 50 dollar bill is that the number 50 has been given a copper-to-green color changing ability. Then again, the larger notes of yesteryear would definitely have a hard time fitting into the wallets and pocketbooks of today.
