1963 Red Seal $2 Dollar Bill Complete Guide - How Much Is It Worth And Why?

This video covers everything you need to know about 1963 $2 Dollar Bills, or 1963 $2 Legal Tender Notes with red seals, from the history of the note to the design to the different factors that might make them valuable or not (and special characteristics that have outsize value catalysts). Collecting rare currency and older banknotes, especially U.S. banknotes, exposes collectors to a wide variety of really interesting monetary history and artwork, so it's always good to brush up on the information and understanding of the notes, and that is what I'm aiming to do with this series. My goal is to cover each of the main types of banknotes, highlighting everything from consecutive notes to fancy serial numbers to uncirculated and circulated bills to errors. So much info to condense and present to you - hopefully you can take away something valuable that will help you in your collecting goals.

Thanks man. I recently started working at sheetz gas station and while working the register come to find odd legal tender. I got a well battered 1963 red seal 2$ bill today and your video was most informative. Thank you.

[@jaymartell2967]

Cool yeah I was working Texaco and a guy spent a 1928 on gas.Decent shape.I still have it.Sleeved up of course.

[@gussuperman7565]

Christian I was under the impression that the red 2 dls bill was only 8 dls . That was an eye opener . Keep up the good work. God bless y'all.

[@TreasureTownCoins]

For sure - there are some better ones!

[@harryscoinsvillage786]

A SO VALUABLE INFORMATION LIKE YOU CHRISTIAN,I AM SO PROUD OF PEOPLE LIKE YOU❤🙏🇺🇸🗽

[@TreasureTownCoins]

Thanks Harry!

[@chriscourson2824]

beautiful note!

[@TreasureTownCoins]

It really is!

[@lewisoverfield5294]

Very nice, I have a couple that I'm planning on sending in for grading lol but thank you for sharing as always great video enjoyed it 😀

[@TreasureTownCoins]

Whoa! Hopefully they knock it out of the park. Have to do pretty well to make it worth it.

[@lewisoverfield5294]

@@TreasureTownCoins yeah I'm hoping they are really nice notes and a couple that I have are also conservative numbers 😉

[@arielleweinstock3838]

How did that go for you? @lewisoverfield5294

[@collectingonthecheap56353]

Nice information. Mine are definitely regular Uncirculated, but don't plan on getting them graded to see if they are higher than 63 for my 63 and 65 for my 63A. Those $2 Legal Tender or United States Notes are amongst my favorite small size notes. Just think they missed an opportunity to make them even greater by keeping the Series 1928 going to the G, instead of making a Series 1934 with a stunning red 2 similar to the stunning blue 1, 5, and 10 on the Series 1934 Silver Certificates.

[@TreasureTownCoins]

Super interesting perspective on the 1928G vs a 1934 with the red 2. Hadn't thought about that but I think I agree. Thanks for watching!

[@collectingonthecheap56353]

Yeah, it's just a random thought, especially considering that on large size Legal Tender notes, they often had a large red Arabic or Roman numeral like on the Bison note and the Poker Chip note.

[@claytonthompson1719]

I just got these two

[@steveturner2231]

I caught this one late, Christian... I had a few errands to run, and made sure to grab a couple rolls of coins while I was out. I have several of these $2 bills, and 3 are Star Notes. There's one ( I don't know if it has a higher value ) with the serial # of * 53274816. It's clean bill, except that it has fold in the middle, so I leave it in a book. Anyway... Thanks, for doing this video, and as always... Have a good one.

[@steveturner2231]

Sorry... I forgot... there's an 'A' at the end of the S.#.

[@jaymartell2967]

I call that a scrambled large straight note.They call it full broken ladder bc it's not in order.

[@RobertBallMagician]

Have a few of these 😊😊

[@TreasureTownCoins]

Nice!

[@JamesSmith-dp3sf]

Nice video.

[@TreasureTownCoins]

[@sparkymctradesalot3362]

[@MRkWl69]

What if you have a big number bill but is misprinted on both sides not matching up

[@christianhartch3108]

Always interesting to think about!

[@TreasureTownCoins]
