It looks to be in very nice condition, possibly a reproduction. What else should we see ?

I have no skill at all in picking fakes with these, and unfortunately, that prevents me from collecting at least a few examples from this very important series.

Has there been any good quality and scholarly work published that gives the reader at least some basic skills necessary to identify fakes?

Paper was in short supply during the Civil War so worthless obsolete notes from banks who didn't exist anymore were recycled.

Many of the fakes most commonly encountered out there are mass-produced tourist replicas. These are copies of notes whose originals are sitting in museum collections. The easiest way to spot them is to look up their serial numbers on one of numerous lists of bogus numbers you can find on the Internet. This list is the one I always refer people to. If your note isn't listed there, chances are it's genuine.
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

I know nothing about confederate notes, but just wanted to say that this appears like a great collection, even if 1 or 2 are replicas, the rest have a lot of history behind them.
