Hello, I have some Sequential Bills and Conferadate Bills. I am wondering what the value of them maybe. I am attaching a picture of them. The Sequential Bills are numbered from **926A all the way through **951A. They are from "Series 1957" and are called "Silver Certificate." I also have 3 of the "Bills" that say Conferadate on them. I am not sure exactly what they are or were used for. I have attached photos of each. Any education would be appreciated
That Confederate note is an obvious fake, unfortunately. I think @SteveInTampa might be able to help you better.
Thank you, I really had no idea. It came from my father's estate and I am just trying to see what's what.
@Lottawishes welcome to CT and a lotta luck that you find something good. Post pictures here to ask about value.
yea, it looks like copy . The $1 notes are worth around :Silver certificates that have issue dates between 1935 and 1957 look nearly identical to the current U.S. dollar bill that features George Washington. Because this time frame represents the most commonly issued silver certificates, most 1957 silver certificates in circulation are worth only slightly more than face value, typically $1.25 to $1.50.
These bills do not appear to have ever been in circulation. They are in a little booklet type thing. Thank you all for the replies
On the confederate note, you look at the signature and compare the color of the ink with the rest of the bill. Yours looks like a photo copy. Which while not a "fake" because it wasn't produced to fool anyone and sell for a lot of money, but it was produced as a memento/ keepsake etc. And if you got if from your father's estate, then there's always sentimental value.
Welcome to CT @Lottawishes. If you post additional notes, please click on FULL IMAGE after the photo uploads. That way, it is easier for us to view and enlarge the image for better evaluation. I hope your father had many nice items and that you can share them with us here.
The CSA $10 is a copy (not genuine) and it’s a low quality copy. The note should look like this. For comparison, this is the OP’s note.
The south is littered with shops selling “facsimile” confeddy notes. They usually sell for $5-10 for a 5-10 pack. Great souvenirs for the kids
