Happy Tuesday, Daily Money readers. It's Bailey Schulz here with the day's top stories.

It's time to go through your piggy banks and wallets. If you have a certain $2 bill, it could be worth thousands.

U.S. Currency Auctions estimates that uncirculated $2 bills from 1890 could sell for up to $4,500, and uncirculated bills from nearly every year between 1862 and 1917 for at least $1,000. Newer bills could also have significant value, as a $2 bill printed in 2003 recently sold at an auction for $2,400. 

There were 1.2 billion $2 bills worth $2.4 billion in circulation in 2017, according to the U.S. Currency Education Program. Making them uncommon but not rare.

WeWork files for bankruptcy 

Office-sharing company WeWork filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in New Jersey federal court Monday, just years after being valued at $47 billion.

The bankruptcy filing is limited to the company's locations in the U.S. and Canada and is part of what WeWork is calling a "comprehensive reorganization" of the business to "best position the company for future success."

The company said it has the support of its key financial stakeholders and has entered into a restructuring support agreement, with holders representing about 92% of its secured notes to "drastically reduce the company's existing funded debt and expedite the restructuring process."
