BenVA Valued Member United States 135 Posts	Posted 02/11/2007 5:55 pm This is some of my NC Confederate currency. I had started just collecting this state since I was born there. I haven't worked on it much in a while though. Image: nc2.jpg 90.27 KB Report this Post to the Staff

BenVA Valued Member United States 135 Posts	Posted 02/11/2007 6:03 pm Here is a $5 confederate bill. This one had been cancelled. It has some X punches in it. They are hard to see unless you hold it up to the light. BenVA Image: confederate5bill.jpg 75.51 KB Report this Post to the Staff

sell-it-store New Member 21 Posts	Posted 02/14/2007 7:42 pm Thanks for posting these. There is so much history in these notes. The Confederate and Southern Civil War State issues are specialities around which extensive collections can be formed. Both areas have excellent new books with comprehensive and up to date information. Hugh Shull just released a great book called "A Guide Book of Southern States Currency" published by Whitman. "Collecting Confederate Paper Money" by Pierre Fricke and published recently by RM Smythe is the most detailed book ever written on CSA notes. I highly recommend both. -Russell Kaye, Sellitstore Report this Post to the Staff

Sap Moderator Australia 16817 Posts	Posted 02/15/2007 03:44 am "Notes from countries that didn't issue coins" are the only banknotes I seriously collect nowadays. I only have one genuine Confederate note, a $5 "blueback": Front and back Bought it off ebay from a US seller. They're fairly easy to get, but not cheap - I had to wait a long time before obtaining a nice condition note for under US$50. There's lots of imitation ones out there, too, and some of these reproductions are more convincing than others. I had a Confed $1 note in my collection for years (found it in a bargain box at a local coin show in the 1980's), pretty worn and tatty-looking, but it had pride of place in my collection until I showed it to a dealer who declared it to be a repro. Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis Report this Post to the Staff

sell-it-store New Member 21 Posts	Posted 02/15/2007 11:47 am "Are they easy to obtain and are they expensive." Yes, they are easy to obtain from dealers, flea markets, etc. Decent CSA notes start at $20-$25, while State issues start at $10-$20. Report this Post to the Staff

humpybong Pillar of the Community Australia 1262 Posts	Posted 02/18/2007 06:16 am How does one tell the authentic notes from the copies? Are there any books or articles that I can purchase to read up on Confederate Notes? Report this Post to the Staff
