On Thursday, October 18, 2012, the Bureau of Engraving and Printing (BEP) released Series 2009 $2 Uncut Currency Sheets.
Uncut currency sheets feature crisp, uncirculated $2 notes bearing the signatures of U.S. Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner and U.S. Treasurer Rosie Rios. All the bills have a designation of the Federal Reserve Bank in New York.
Uncut Currency Sheets are "hot off the press" and are a "must-have in any collection and make wonderful gifts for those ‘hard to buy for’ people on your holiday shopping list," the Bureau of Engraving and Printing promotes on its website.
Sheets of $2 bills are available in varying amounts. BEP options include a 4-subject sheet for $22.50, an 8-subject sheet for $36.00, a 16-subject sheet for $61.00 and a 32-subject sheet for $102.00. Respective premiums for each come to $14.50, $20, $29 and $38.
Series 2009 $2 Uncut Currency Sheets may be purchased directly from the BEP online store at:

According to the BEP’s website, its products are tax-free and ship for free, although it states fees may apply in "special situations." Delivery may take between three and four weeks.
Also available from the Bureau of Engraving and Printing are 16- and 32-subject acrylic frames to hold and hang the notes. The frame enables viewing of both sides of the $2 bills. Pricing is $32 for the 16-subject frame and $60.00 for the 32-subject frame.

I would buy a set if they changed the security features and updated the picture of Jefferson.
I would use them in daily commerce if the Treasury and Crane Paper weren’t so fixated on keeping us awash in $1 bills.
I would buy this if the signature of tax cheat timmy wasn’t on the same bill as Thomas Jefferson. timmy isn’t fit to wipe horse manure off Mr. Jefferson’s boots. Nor is his boss.
Consider changing reverse in each series to reflect some event in our
nation’s history. Wow!
The Dept would indeed get attention.
Few people, have ever seen $2 bill. It
would improve currency as a hobby and
increase your revenue.. love bills! Examples:
arrangement of numbers, * notes, , ladders, etc.
