According to several factual research studies the value of the 1976 two dollar bill is minimal at this time. The encyclopedia.com states that unless there is some misprint, ink error, misalignment, or something to make it rare there is no specific value. On Ebay selling March 1st , 2008 the highest bid was for around 11 dollars, but that bill was unique. Please find below some statisics about the two dollar bill: The perceived rarity of a $2 bill can be attributed to its low printing numbers that sharply dropped beginning in the late 1950s when the $2 bill was a United States Note and recently the sporadic printings of still relatively low numbers as a Federal Reserve Note. Lack of public knowledge of the $2 bill further contributes to its perceived rarity. This perceived rarity can lead to a greater tendency to hoard any $2 bills encountered and thus decrease their circulation. After United States currency was changed to its current size, the two-dollar bill, unlike other denominations, was only assigned to one class of currency, the United States Note. United States Notes had a legal statutory limit of $346,861,016. This was not a significant amount of money, even at the time. The bulk of this amount was assigned to the $5 United States Note. From 1929-1957 (from Series of 1928 to Series 1953), the $2 bill on average was printed in quantities of 50 million notes per series with only several variances to this number. From 1957 onwards, $2 bill production figures steadily decreased from 18 million notes in Series 1953A to just 3.2 million notes in its final printing, Series 1963A, which ended in 1966. By contrast, an average of 125 million per series of $5 United States Notes were printed from 1929-1957; the final Series 1963 printing of the $5 United States Note included 67.2 million notes. When the current note was first issued in 1976, it was met with general curiosity, and was seen as a collectible, not as a piece of regularly circulating currency, which the Treasury intended it to be. The main reason it failed to circulate was that businesses never really requested them as part of their normal operations to give back out in change. This failure is linked to the gradual disappearance of the former $2 United States Notes. Supplies of the Series 1976 $2 bill were allowed to dwindle until August 1996 when another series finally began to be printed; this series, however, was only printed for the Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta. Once again, in October 2003, the $2 bill was printed for only the Federal Reserve Bank of Minneapolis after supplies dwindled . A Series 2003A was also issued starting in 2006, with larger numbers and for multiple Federal Reserve Banks, due to an increase in demand for supplies of the note. Today, there is a common misconception that the $2 bill is no longer in circulation. According to the Treasury, they "receive many letters asking why the $2 bill is no longer in circulation".[1] In response, the Treasury states: "The $2 bill remains one of our circulating currency denominations. According to B.E.P. statistics, 590,720,000 Series 1976 $2 bills were printed and as of February 28, 1999, there was $1,166,091,458 worth of $2 bills in circulation worldwide." However, "in circulation" does not necessarily mean that the notes are actively circulated, only that this is the amount that hasn't been redeemed for shredding. The Treasury states that the best way for the $2 bill to circulate is if businesses use them as they would any other denomination. The most significant evidence of the $2 bill's reawakening would be that, in 2005 alone, 61 million $2 bills were printed by the U.S. Bureau of Engraving and Printing. This is more than twice the number of $2 bills that were printed annually between 1990 and 2001. Many banks stocking $2 bills will not use them except upon specific request by the customer, and even then, may cause a delay with a trip to the vault. Another factor in the bill's rarity is the outright refusal of some commercial banks to reorder them at all.
The value of a star note is usually somewhat higher than that of a "regular" bill, but the extra value depends very much on the bill's date and condition. If it's a modern (1976 or later) $2 bill, regular-issue ones are only worth face value so a circulated star (replacement) note will only be worth 50¢ to a dollar more. A nice uncirculated one could bring around $4. If the bill is older please post a new question with its date and what letter if any is after the date. You don't need to copy the entire serial number.
It's still worth $100.
In decent condition, it has a collector value of a few dollars.
just saw this very same type of $20.00 bill on pawn stars tonight and it was valued at $1,000.00
30-40 dollars more than the face value

What is a 1976 2 dollar bill with a star worth
It means that the original bill was destroyed so they made another one and put a star beside it.

"Star notes" can be worth a small premium over a standard bill's value. Depending on condition it might retail for $55 to $60.
$10 in uncirculated condition. $2 if used.
It's still worth $100.
Star notes are only printed to replace bills damaged during production, so most bills of any denomination won't have a star. If a bill does have one, it replaces the letter at the end of the bill's serial number.
A twenty dollar bill with a star on it can be worth different amounts depending on the date. A 1914 twenty dollar bill with a star on it is worth 1000 dollars.
In decent condition, it has a collector value of a few dollars.
Please check your bill's date again. he US didn't print any bills of any denomination dated 1978. The nearest date for $2 bills is 1976; those bills are only worth face value unless they are uncirculated. Correction: Yes they did make a 1978 two dollar bill. I am looking at one and holding it in my hand.
