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. The face of the small-size $2 Legal Tender Note features a central portrait of Thomas Jefferson, while the back depicts his home, Monticello. It also bears the distinctive red seal and serial numbers unique to Legal Tender Notes. The obligation clause on the obverse reads, ”THIS NOTE IS A LEGAL TENDER AT ITS FACE VALUE FOR ALL DEBTS, PUBLIC AND PRIVATE.” Also included on the obverse are the phrases, ”UNITED STATES NOTE” and ”THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA WILL PAY TO THE BEARER ON DEMAND TWO DOLLARS.”
