I still to this day, do not understand just why, AFTER the Bicentennial, the Ike, the half, and the quarter went back to their normal reverses, yet the $2 note did not. The Series 1995 $2 notes should have been Series 1996 and featured the big head design with the Monticello reverse. And, since they are having this new trend, where they are showing the backs of the buildings they feature, the $2 note should feature the back of the Monticello.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Why, I oughta...NO, just kidding.
