| Description: Two dollar national bank notes are a very popular type of bill to collect. Collectors refer to these notes as Lazy Deuces. This nickname derives from the fact that the two is laying on its side resting. For every three one dollar bills that a national bank note printed, it only issued one two dollar note. So they tend to be the rarest of the small denominations. Two dollar bills tend to be especially scarce from Southern and Western states.
The front of two dollar national bank notes has lady liberty holding an American flag. The back shows Sir Walter Raleigh.
