250 2 dollar bills?

Question

i been savin 2 dollar bills for a year or 2 and i have 250 of them....im wondering if this is a smart investment

Answer 1

Well, you've saved $500, so that's a good thing ... but you haven't earned a penny of interest on them, so that's a bad thing. If you'd deposited that money in the bank you would have earned another $10 or $15 in interest by now besides your initial $500.

Suggest you start a savings account with them right away.

Answer 2

It probably is not a very smart investment. Two dollar bills are still being printed. I regularly get $100 or $200 in two dollar bills at the bank.

If you want to save bills that are most likely to appreciate in value, only save bills in excellent condition, bills with a star in the serial number, and bills with some sort of misprint.

Answer 3

250 two dollar bills is the same as 500 one dollar bills.

It has nothing to do with investing, because your investing in the dollar itself.

There is no difference between 10 two dollar bills and one 20 dollar bill.

They are both legal tender of the united states, and the value of the two dollar bill will not raise any higher than the amount of any other bill. they will always remain equal.

Answer 4

The $2 bill is rare, but not uncommon.  you should also look into finding old coinage as well as gold coinage.  Also, keep an eye out for silver and gold certificates.......like the $2 bill, these are still legal tender but WORTH more than the face value if collected.

All things have a worth, it is whether someone wants to buy it.
