| 1976 $2 Federal Reserve Notes
I finally put together a full district set of postmarked 1976 $2 Federal Reserve Notes! http://www.panix.com/~clay/currency/1976-District-Set.html
Now that I'm looking at the set, I need to find an "A" with "13-Star Flag Over Independence Hall" stamp!

Very cool!! I have only one stamped one from a Citizen's Bank which has the 13 cent stamp, but is conveniently missing the date!!!

Yep, I wonder the same thing. The one dollar coin will never catch on until the up the production of the $2 note and eliminate the $1 bill......

get rid of the nasty ugly $1 coins! Keep the note. Why does everyone advocate eliminating the $1 note in favor of a silly token? Man are they ugly!

Several months ago, I managed to build a full district set of 1976 $2 Federal Reserve Notes, postmarked on the First Day of Issue, April 13, 1976 -- Each of the 12 notes had the same stamp, the 13-star flag over Independence Hall stamp (Scott Number 1622): http://www.panix.com/~clay/currency/1976-District-Set-1622.html
After a lot of work, I've built another set. This one is another full district set and each note has the same stamp -- In this case, the Americana Issue - Eagle with Shield stamp (Scott number 1596): http://www.panix.com/~clay/currency/1976-District-Set-1596.html
Now, that's crazy!

While it may be crazy (your words) to complete the two sets... if you want to go truly insane .... get all the stamps on 1 side lol you know.. for equilibrium

For the bicentennial, the USPS issued a "State Flag" series of stamps -- One stamp for each of the 50 states. I have one set of 1976 $2 FRN FDI with all 50 state flags, and I'm one note away from having my second set.
I'm also working on a few other sets. |
