They could be any value, but due to today's construction of 2uF electrolytic being you know how "hyoooge" (about 4mm diameter and 10mm hight) it won't be happy.
In the olden days they were...well, you saw the Mershons Icon_smile - these could take an amp or two of ripple without any ill effects.

I wonder if today one could find a small value lytic of large dimensions; I haven't seen it, at least not in catalogues.
People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.
