$2 Star Notes Uncut Sheet of 4, 1976 Federal Reserve Bank of Boston in Folder

Description: Uncut Sheet of Four $2 Dollar Star Notes from 1976 - Federal Reserve Bank of Boston in Original Folder and Envelope A "star" sheet is used to replace the imperfect sheet. Reusing an exact serial number to replace an imperfect note is costly and time consuming. A "star" note has its own special serial number followed by a star in place of a suffix letter. The first $2 notes were issued by the federal government in 1862 and featured a portrait of the first Secretary of the Treasury, Alexander Hamilton. In 1869, it changed to a portrait of Thomas Jefferson which has been used ever since. Monticello, Thomas Jefferson's estate in Virginia, was first featured on the back of the Series 1928 $2 United States Note. In 1976, in celebration of the bicentennial of the U.S., Series 1976, was introduced. The new design maintained the portrait of Jefferson on the face and changed the back to the signing of the Declaration of Independence. The vignette features an engraving of John Trumbull's painting "Declaration of Independence." Because of a limited amount of space on the note, five of 47 men in the painting were not included in the engraving. The folder this sheet comes in has a series of photos showing the printing process with a brief explanation of the printing process. This uncut sheet of crisp $2 bills is a wonderful addition for any currency collector or scholar of U.S. history. We ship fast via USPS Priority Insured Mail, and share the postal charges.
