I'm making this because I was curious about their status, adopting the common misconception that they're 'rare' and 'out of circulation,' but just tonight found out that not only is the treasury still making them, banks usually have them in reserve. Also, half dollars are available, too!

Well, maybe not "right now" if you're in the United States. Banks are closed :x

I like to pay with $2 bills because of this misconception. I always laugh inside when the cashier asks if I'm sure I wanna give it up.

I didn't know that, either. That's kinda crazy.

I'm pretty sure the entire purpose of $2 bills at banks is for grandparents to buy to put inside of cards.

For real though. Getting half dollars is a good hobby. Search through them and look for silvers you can sell at a coin store for profit and sell the regular half back to the bank.

Another fun fact: Bananas and Avocados are berries. Strawberries and Raspberries are not berries...

I knew this. I think I was talking to someone at a bank about this...
