1928D $2 Legal Tender Note

Legal Tender Notes, also known as United States Notes, were introduced during the Civil War. The size was reduced to modern standards beginning with Series 1928, and only $1, $2, $5, and $100 notes were issued in the smaller size. The face of the small-size $2 Legal Tender Note features a central portrait of Thomas Jefferson, while the back depicts his home, Monticello. This popular 1928D $2 currency note bears Julian-Morgenthau signatures, as well as the distinctive red seal and serial numbers unique to Legal Tender Notes.
