The $2 bill has long been surrounded by myths, with many Americans believing it’s rare, unlucky, or no longer printed. But while most $2 bills are still worth only face value, some can be surprisingly valuable to collectors.

Before spending a $2 bill, experts suggest checking the year, serial number, and condition — you could be holding a hidden treasure.
