GO Moderator United States 6563 Posts	Posted 03/31/2011 10:41 pm A coworker of mine that once made fun of my numismaticness has now asked for my help. Looking for some info on this note. Is it authentic? Serial # 40679 Based on it's poor condition does it have any value? Thanks! -GO Report this Post to the Staff

zeewool Pillar of the Community 3660 Posts	Posted 03/31/2011 10:57 pm While the note looks good, and would be worth about $20-$30 if genuine...... serial # 40679 is a known fake. Report this Post to the Staff
Broken-Coin Pillar of the Community United States 1812 Posts	Posted 03/31/2011 11:15 pm Back when I collected Obsolete, Broken Bank,Southern State and Confederate Currency (wish I had that collection now), I would say that about 98% of the Confederate Notes had the serial numbers and signatures in brown ink, the other 2% was in red ink (this was mostly true for Broken-Bank Notes also)... To my knowledge, Signatures in black ink are more than likely reprints... Report this Post to the Staff

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
