About this banknote
The United States Treasury issued this 2-dollar banknote, part of the United States Note series issued in 1917. This series was introduced to standardize the currency and improve its circulation, continuing the issuance of large-size legal tender notes used throughout the late 19th and early 20th centuries.
The front side of the note features a portrait of Thomas Jefferson and an engraving of the United States Capitol. The reverse showcases intricate geometric patterns and ornate design elements in black and green. This note, identified by Pick number 188, was a key part of early 20th-century U.S. currency and was issued prior to smaller-sized banknotes in 1929.
