Connor - I just picked up a lot of NC fractional notes on the bay. Haven't even had a chance to open the package yet but I'll have to check them to see if they are also printed on unissued currency.

Would it be ok to post an Upham counterfeit Confederate note in this thread?

Yakima Boy, go for it. They are included in the overall genre of Confederate note collecting.

I am not a Confederate currency collector per se but do collect what I call "small change" notes from the States. ==  ==  ==

After reading a book on the history of counterfeiting in the US, I found this poor quality Upham note for a pittance on ebay. The whole subject of counterfeiting is fascinating to me. I understand why it it illegal to have them but I would sure like to collect them. At least Confederate examples are ok. YB

Not to get off topic but check out "Operation Bernhard" notes for an amazing counterfeiting story!

1862 T-50 $50. I have been wanting an affordable example of one of these for a while. These usually go for more than I want to spend. I'm very happy with it even if it has been cancelled.
