Some say that our currency is not worth the paper its printed on. Some say otherwise.

Then there are some currency paper bills which may be worth many times more than their face value. Such is the case with some $2.00 bills. I have several "first day of issue" $2.00 bills of the current version in use. 

KTLA News has posted an article on some $2.00 bills that are worth thousands.

The reported:

TAMPA, Fla. (WFLA) — It might be time to check those $2 bills you have lying around the house because some of them could be worth thousands.

First printed in 1862, the $2 bill is difficult to find, mostly because they’re hardly used. There have been several editions of the $2 bill, with the most recent version designed in 1963, according to the U.S. Treasury Department.

Some versions of the $2 bill have a portrait of Alexander Hamilton, America’s first secretary of the treasury. An 1869 redesign put Thomas Jefferson on the bill, according to the U.S. Treasury’s Bureau of Engraving and Printing.

Depending on which version of the bill you’ve got, it could be worth far more than just the $2 printed on the front and back.
