When the $2 was reintroduced in the 1970s there were people who used it as part of a scam. They would cut the ends off a $20, being sure to leave enough of the bill intact so they could get reimbursed for their damaged money, then cut the ends off the $2 bill and replace them with the ends from the $20. They would then try to pass the $2 bill as a $20. Since the portrait of Jefferson on the $2 bill is similar to the portrait of Jackson on the older $20 the altered $2 bill would often successfully pass a casual examination and be honored as a $20.
