That image says 1.2.93 in the bottom right corner. Does that mean the
bill was issued on January 2, 1993? If so that seems a bit odd since,
according to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jamaican_dollar#Banknotes,
the $2 bill was dropped in 1989.

I imagine that Wikipedia has it wrong, then.

You need to beware of Wikipedia, as because it is open access people
write things there that are not necessarily true.

As far as I can see from a little
web research, the 1993 issue was the last for the Jamacian $2 bill.

Actually, the dating is February 1, 1993. As Tony said, don't trust
Wikipedia for everything. Currently in Jamaica, the lowest
denomination coin being used is JMD$10, with the JMD$20 even more
common. I have been a frequent visitor to Jamaica and can remember the
50¢ bill, and the largest bill was $10. Now the $1000 bill is used the
most. Ever since they floated the currency the exchange rate has gone
way up. I haven't checked recently, but on my last trip in January, it
was JMD$82/US$1. A beer will cost you $300! But it sure is fun playing
poker with their money.

BTW, I use JMD$50 and JMD$100 bills for bookmarks. Costs less than a
bookmark!
