The First In God We Trust $2 Bill Currency Genuine Series 1963 Legal Tender With Red Seal - In the 1950s, the United States was amid a boom of post-war prosperity, but a looming threat from the Soviet Union motivated the U.S. to set itself apart from Communism, including the emphasis of religion. It was during this time that "under God" was added to the Pledge of Allegiance and our U.S. currency, including the revered 2 dollar bill. New currency was redesigned to replace E Pluribus Unum (From Many, One), which it had been since the founding of our nation, with "In God We Trust". In late 1963, the U.S. Treasury launched the new $2 design, reflecting the change from money backed by Treasury silver and the first $2 note with the nation's brand-new motto. They were also the final $2 issue to bear the red seal. Very few of these rare 1963 series bills still remain unclaimed by collectors, but now The First in God We Trust $2 Bill Currency can be yours, available in an exclusive presentation from The Bradford Exchange Mint.392 times rarer than a 1963 $1 bill, this 2 dollar with red seal note is genuine legal tender and is offered in fine collector's condition due to scarcity. This rare first-of-a-kind note features Thomas Jefferson's iconic portrait on the front, along with serial numbering and the clear absence of "Will Pay to the Bearer on Demand". On the back, you will find the inclusion of "In God We Trust" for the very first time, above a beautiful rendering of Thomas Jefferson's home at Monticello. To protect this rare 60-year-old collectible currency, it arrives sealed for permanent protection within a crystal-clear, tamper-proof holder that allows convenient viewing from both sides. Plus, it includes a museum-quality, mahogany-finished deluxe display box with a gleaming title plaque to show off this early reflection of America's faith. First and last issues are always highly sought after, especially from collectors, history buffs and patriots, so strong demand is
