If I had a choice between $200 worth of two dollar bills or $200 worth of one dollar coins I would go with the coins because they won’t get burnt up in a fire and I enjoy looking at the pictures on each of the coins I wish they would come out with two dollar coins

Ain't no way they were trained for being on register without knowing where 2s go. At Culver's, we have slots for 1,5,10, and 20, with all the basic coins being there as well. Where the 100's or 50's slot would be is coin refills. ANYTHING that isn't a coin or 1,5-20 goes underneath the monee holder. Coupons go there, 100s go there, and yes, the $2 will be under the monee.
@TheTwoDollarBillDocumentary
@TheTwoDollarBillDocumentary День назад
Sounds like you're working on a register with just 4 cash slots. Most original registers had 5, and again, they were designed to have the two as one of the bills. But things changed over time, as did the need to make registers smaller (like yours). When that happened, the $2 was pushed out as a potential bill for a slot.

John Hanson (1st black president) a Liberian senator during the mid-19th century who has been erroneously claimed as the first Black president of the United States. Not much is known about Hanson’s early life. He was born into slavery in Baltimore, Maryland, around 1791. According to some historians, Hanson purchased his freedom but the method and year are unknown.Hanson was often confused with a white politician of the same name, who was falsely claimed to be the first president of the United States. in 1781, this other man was named president of Congress under the Articles of Confederation before the U.S. Constitution officially established the office of president of the United States. Because of his position as president of the Congress, some have erroneously argued that he, not George Washington, was the actual first president. Adding to the confusion was the fact that Hanson has been thought to be the dark-skinned man on the back of the $2 bill. The image on the $2 bill shows the drafting of The Declaration of Independence by painter John Turnbull. The image some claimed as Hanson is actually Robert Morris, one of the original signers of the Declaration. Morris’s image appears dark on the bill due to the type of printing used then.

Great video, but there are also people who use this two dollar bill and put it in the middle of a bundle of 20s, a lot of times it gets past Bank counters, obviously that’s fraudulent and I would not recommend anyone do this at home or at a bank.I was at a flea market where someone was trying to buy something from me with four $20 bills and a two dollar bill, masquerading as a 20. Glad I caught it.

Remember, it's an engraving, not a photograph. It was never going to be perfect. Whoever carved this into a printing plate did a phenomenal job. Things as small as eyes have to be really difficult to get right.

My stepfather and a neighboring rancher raised a few quarter horses in the '60s and often went to the horse races. He had stacks of gummed together $2 bills that he could peel off at the track to place bets. He gave me several before I went overseas in 1968. The first time I used one at an Air Force BX, I got change for a $20 back.
@richard1113
@richard1113 23 дня назад
It's really surprising to me that there's more $100 bills in circulation than the $1 and the $20. I see $1s all the time and $20 (much to my disappointment) is the de-facto standard for ATMs. I almost never see $100s. I wish I had easier access to $50s and $100s, would cut down on the bills in my fold.
@TheTwoDollarBillDocumentary
@TheTwoDollarBillDocumentary 22 дня назад
It is amazing that there are more $100s, but considering how that's our largest denomination, it makes sense that there could be many large transactions that require those bills. Either way, if you just go to your local bank, I'm sure they'd have many $100s and $50s if you wanted to trade in your small bills for them.
@cavestoryking8761
@cavestoryking8761 14 дней назад
I'm pretty sure that's mostly due to $100s being used a lot in foreign countries.
