A Premium Strap of Sequential Two Dollar Bills from the Bureau of Engraving and Printing

This listing offers a premium and highly collectible lot of American currency. It is a strap of one hundred Two Dollar bills, totaling two hundred dollars face value, direct from the Bureau of Engraving and Printing, or BEP. The strap contains 100 consecutive notes from L11009901C through L11010000C. The band is marked "TWOS" and "BEP," confirming these are new, uncirculated notes sourced directly from the Treasury.

The bills feature the iconic portrait of Thomas Jefferson on the obverse, a design that has been used on the Two Dollar note since 1928, and the iconic reverse design depicting the signing of the Declaration of Independence, introduced in 1976. The Two Dollar bill has a rich history. First issued in 1862, it was discontinued in 1966 due to low popularity before being reintroduced as a Federal Reserve Note in 1976. Today, the BEP continues to produce new series periodically based on Federal Reserve demand, with over three point two billion dollars worth in circulation as of 2023.
