JBL Valued Member United Kingdom 289 Posts	Posted 02/09/2011 06:34 am Amongst some coins I got at auction a few weeks back were some Confederate banknotes, a selection of $1-2-5-10-100 bills. I know nothing about this currency and a quick google appeared to indicate that the wording/images were correct. I popped then on ebay to sell a couple of them and had a message back to say that they were infact issued by the bubble gum people in1965 as a collection set with bubble gum cards. I didn't want to mislead anyone so removed them from the listings. BUT.... How can I tell if they are gum notes or the real thing ? Nowhere can I see A&BC printed on them. The paper is very fiberous. I have attached a picture so please feel free to have a say. Cheers and thanks Brian Identified - moved to US Paper Money forum - Sap Report this Post to the Staff
