Steff New Member Denmark 1 Posts	Posted 07/25/2012 12:40 pm Hello. First off all, I've searched the internet, to find the value on this banknote. I cant seem to find any, so I'm trying out this forum. I've also asked on a Danish forum (Im a Dane), but yet no answer. Front. Back. Looking forward to hear from you. Report this Post to the Staff

Also, the signatures and serial # look printed on and not signed, so that is another sign it is a fake. An authenticate one will have a blank reverse, like this one. http://www.donckelly.com/confederate/t42_335.html Edited by wquinn 07/25/2012 1:35 pm Report this Post to the Staff

Sorry. 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
Tim Stroud Pillar of the Community United States 2661 Posts	Posted 07/25/2012 8:49 pm Another way to tell it is fake is by the jet black ink. 150 years ago ink had all sorts of things in it that would change color over time. One of these was iron. The ink should have actually rusted which would have changed the color from black to a reddish black. Also it would have eventually started to bleed through and become visible from the back side. Edited by Tim Stroud 07/25/2012 8:49 pm Report this Post to the Staff
