What is the history on this item and how much does it cost now.

Hi, anthonyleal1!

Are you sure that what you have is a Silver Certificate and not a Federal Reserve Note?

What I found below is quoted from the following site.

United States two-dollar bill - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

In 1976, the Treasury Department reintroduced the $2 bill as a cost-saving measure.[3] The note was redesigned and issued as a Federal Reserve Note. The obverse featured the same portrait of Jefferson, a green instead of red seal and serial numbers, and an engraved rendition of John Trumbull's The Declaration of Independence on the reverse. First day issues of the new $2 bills could be taken to a post office and stamped with the date "APR 13 1976". In all, 590,720,000 notes from Series 1976 were printed.
