MetalStacks presents the highly unique $2 U.S Star Note - Low Serial # - Series of 1953 with Red Seal,
(PSV 25)
United States Notes were introduced for circulation during the Civil War in 1862, covering denominations from $1 to $1,000. The $2 denomination persisted through the transition to small-size notes in 1928 and remained in circulation until its discontinuation in the early 1960s. The $2 note was reintroduced in 1976 as a Federal Reserve Note. Despite their continued status as legal tender, the distinctive red seals and serial numbers of earlier issues render them highly sought after by collectors.
