Last month I called up my local bank and they ordered me a pack of 100 brand-new $2 bills.

I needed some for gifts, and I had fun spending the rest. Many puzzled cashiers. Do a google search for Taco Bell and $2 bill - it's a hilarious story. I didn't have as much fun as that guy, but it was still entertaining.

I'll take them if they're worthless to you

How hard is it to really get one of these? And how about a 50 cent coin?

a $2 bill? they're still printed so its not hard. i dunno about half dollars though.

I had ~$340 in half-dollars. I used to collect them. Then I turned them in to help buy my first computer. :D

No. $4 bills don't exist.
Didn't think so. So why is that story any good? I searched for Taco Bell and $2 bill as kranky suggested and that's what came up first. Perhaps that was just an edited version? It would definitely make more sense if it was a $2 bill...and even be funny.

The original story was a $2 bill, yes. That's an edited version of a very old email spam.

Yup.. Go to your bank and order them. You have to buy them (I believe) a bundle which is like $200. I ordered one before 100 of crispy $2 bill all in sequencial order :)
