Description
A Historic Commemorative from the Turn of the Millennium
This listing offers a unique and highly collectible piece of American currency. It is a Series 1995 Two Dollar Federal Reserve Note, issued by the Bureau of Engraving and Printing, or BEP, to commemorate the new millennium. This special note features the star symbol designation, indicating it is a replacement note, and its serial number begins with 2000, marking the year 2000. It was produced at the BEP's Fort Worth, Texas facility for the Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta, designated by District F.
The note is presented in its original commemorative folder, which includes information about the Millennium Note and features images of Thomas Jefferson and the signing of the Declaration of Independence. The folder is green with gold accents.
Historical Context: The 1995 Millennium Two Dollar Star Note
In 2000, the Treasury issued Series 1995 Two Dollar Millennium Star Notes for each Federal Reserve District in a very limited quantity of just 9,999 notes per District. The first four digits of the serial number were 2000, making each note a commemorative piece tied to the turn of the millennium. These special notes were offered by the BEP to collectors at a premium in a presentation folder with a protective sleeve.
Prior to this issuance, the only Two Dollar notes issued for the 1995 series were the Atlanta District notes for general circulation. For the Millennium Notes, however, the BEP produced these limited star notes for all 12 Federal Reserve Districts, making any non-Atlanta issue particularly scarce. The Atlanta District notes, while more available than the others, are still a finite and historic issue.
What is a Star Note?
A star note is a replacement note printed by the BEP to substitute for defective or damaged notes discovered during the production process. The star symbol at the end of the serial number distinguishes these notes from standard currency. Star notes typically have lower printing numbers, which adds an aspect of collectibility.
Design and Specifications
The obverse features the portrait of President Thomas Jefferson, while the reverse displays John Trumbull's painting Declaration of Independence. The note bears the signatures of Mary Ellen Withrow as Treasurer and Robert E. Rubin as Secretary of the Treasury.
