It is worth $2 and nothing more, unless you have an older series, pre 1970 it may be worth $2.25. It makes for a nice keepsake to give to grandchildren.

Be certain that what you have aren't Two Dollar silver certificates instead of Two Dollar 'bills'.
I, too, inherited some $2.00 'bills' (from a Grandparent), but upon closer inspection I discovered that they were printed 'way back when' and stated on the face something like 'This instrument is redeemable for two dollars in silver coin . . .". Since the U.S. Mint no longer does this (redeem paper for silver at face value) these 'bills' have become collector items if in good condition.
Regardless of type, they are still legal tender and therefore worth $2.00 to a commercial entity.
As an aside, I was at an auction recently where a 2000 'Golden' Sacagawea dollar went for $8.00. It was all I could do to keep from jumping up and yelling, "It's a Dollar! It's worth a Dollar! You can get one at any bank in the country FOR A DOLLAR!" Still, I guess it's actually 'worth' what someone is willing to pay for it so you might try to do something like that with your currency to see if you can get more than face value for it.

A $2 bill is worth just that - $2.00. They are readily available at almost any bank. The only premium you could get for one would be if it were from a very old seies, a star note (star at end of serial number instead of a letter - too complex to explain here)from a short run, or if it had an unusual serial nuber - like 4 or 5 leading zeroes, all the same number, etc.

In the south, $2 bill's were considered unlucky, so many people still do not use it. I personally have 4 of them sitting in my house right now. You could probably get more than $2 on Ebay because many people will buy anything on there for more than it's worth.

The value would be $2.00 cause if you went to the store with it that is what it would be worth. Perhaps in the future it will be worth something.

Now, if you had a $3 bill ... then you'd get some interest.

$2. They still print them...you would pay for listing & not get anything back. Then, maybe someone from the south would buy it...

2 dollars I think. That is all it is worth at my work.
