1976 $2 Star Notes
The 1976 $2 Federal Reserve star note blends modern collecting with a pivotal moment in U.S. currency history. Reintroduced for the nation’s Bicentennial, the Series 1976 $2 note returned Thomas Jefferson to everyday circulation. Within this series, replacement notes marked with a star have become a standout specialty for paper money enthusiasts. A 1976 $2 Federal Reserve star note is a replacement note printed to stand in for a misprinted or damaged note during production. Instead of the usual letter suffix, its serial number ends with a star, indicating it was created to maintain accurate counts without duplicating serials. For the Series 1976 issue, which marked the revival of the $2 denomination, replacement runs were produced for multiple Federal Reserve Districts, resulting in varying levels of scarcity by district.
