FREE: 1963 $2 red seal note

F&W, nice note.It would make a nice placeholder in my collection of $2.00 bills as I am missing several from the 1929 -1966 series. As 1963 is when the Motto "In God We Trust" Was placed on the note.
In 1929, when all U.S. currency was changed to its current size, the $2 bill was issued only as a United States Note. The obverse featured a cropped version of Thomas Jefferson's portrait that had been on previous $2 bills. The reverse featured Jefferson's home, the Monticello. The note's seal and serial numbers were red. The Series of 1928 $2 bill featured the treasury seal superimposed by the United States Note obligation to the left and a large gray TWO to the right;
In 1953 the $2 bill received design changes analogous to the $5 United States Note. The treasury seal was made smaller and moved to the right side of the bill; it was superimposed over the gray word TWO. The United States Note obligation now became superimposed over a gray numeral 2. The reverse remained unchanged.
The final change to $2 United States Notes came in 1963 when the motto IN GOD WE TRUST was added to the reverse over the Monticello. And, because dollar bills were soon to no longer be redeemable in silver, WILL PAY TO THE BEARER ON DEMAND was removed from the obverse. These $2 bills were officially discontinued in August 1966.

What kind of GIN do you want for this one? I was born in 1963!! China Mike

the $2 bills were acually discontinued in 2003. the red stamped ones were discontinued in 1963. i own one from 1964 with the green stamp. my point of view and many people say is in 1928(when the $2 bills were released, i know because i own one) no one knew what the color red stood for. when ww2 began in 1939 the nazis color on there flag was red because it stood for evil. when we won the war, they continued making them with the red stamp. they made them through the 50's with red stamps.finally in 1963 a debut broke out. many said that red stood for evil. many more said green was for good. so in 1964 they changed to green stamp until it ended in 2003.

@ coolsteve12 Thanks for that information, I knew that the $2.00 bill went on later than 1966, however after that there was no longer the red markings. I should have been more clear when I made my statement & I apologize. I have been a learned collector for nearly 25yrs so I feel bad when I have made an error in not going further into any description. So, I think you very much & I am going to have a look for your Mom's Blue stamped $2.00 note. :)
