Something that many people are unaware of is that you can still get fresh crisp $2 bills from most banks. The bill was discontinued in 1966 but was reintroduced 10 years later as a potential cost-saving measure. Today, it is seldom seen in circulation. Fewer than 1% of all banknotes currently produced are $2 bills. This comparative scarcity in circulation, coupled with a lack of public awareness that the bill is still in circulation, has also inspired urban legends and occasionally has created problems for people trying to use the bill to make purchases. The bill itself is still being printed and a total of 44,800,000 notes were ordered for fiscal year 2014, which runs from October 2013 through September 2014.
