King of England Smoking Tobacco[edit]

There is a clip concerning one of the earlier versions of the bill including the King of England smoking tobacco and an eagle on the reverse of the bill. This looks like vandalism but I can't verify that it is. Can anyone help here? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 148.170.181.199 (talk) 13:11, 20 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

It's not vandalism, it's actually supported by the source. It's describing this version of the $2 bill. - ZLEA _T\^C 14:42, 20 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Two Dollar Bill Taco Bell[edit]

There is story about a customer going to taco bell and the employee didn't accept it? Can that be added? I'm sure it is just a made-up story. http://www.bestshortstories.com/story/233961/2-bill-at-taco-bell/ https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/taco-bell-two-dollar/ Cwater1 (talk) 01:41, 6 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Cwater1 I doubt that source would pass WP:RS. Even if it did, I don't see any merit in including the story. Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate collection of information. - ZLEA _T\^C 02:10, 6 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I thought I could ask on the talk page before making an edit on the article. I don't think it is needed as it is trivial.Cwater1 (talk) 02:30, 6 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Small-sized bill date[edit]

I'm wondering which date we should go with for the first bills. They were authorized (and the Series Date) is 1928, but they weren't released into circulation until April 1929. To my mind, either of those dates would work, but I figured this was one of those small things that should be set by consensus. Almostfm (talk) 07:47, 13 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
