	When I was stationed in Germany during the mid-80s there
	were a LOT of $2 bills in circulation for use in the PXs
	and commissaries.  We also (unfortunately) had an unbearable
	amount of Susan B. Anthony dollars--almost a decade after

	still in use in Germany.

	If you can't locate the bills here, you could use the
	"WHOIS" gopher service to look up the E-Mail addresses
	of GIs stationed in Germany and see if someone would be
	willing to trade bills with you via snail mail.
