I "deal" in $2 bills as one of my wacko side hobbies (I'll sell them to you for $1.99 for quantities less than 100 ). $2 bills aren't worth any more than two dollars in the general case, but like all bills, if you go back far enough, they can be worth something.
In 1976, the $2 reverse changed to a Bicentenial version, and the $2 is still that way today. Most of the $2s you see are 1995 Fort Worth -printed $2s (Mary Ellen Withrow/Robert E. Rubin), but there are a fair bit of 1976 twos in circulation. I'd say for a given strap (100-count) of used $2s, I see 60% 1995 and 40% 1976. But usually I just get fresh clean 1995 $2s.
Anyhow, 1976 $2s aren't worth anything more than $2. If you want to find the value of an older bill, pick up a copy of Bank Note Reporter and turn to the "price guide" section. It'll tell you what all US paper money is worth, approximately.
