    Is that a steam engine on an 1839 $100 bill in the state of Texas? Turn it the correct way for us to see.

    I don't have it in hand obviously, but it certainly reminds me of the color and texture of a reproduction

    1850 was the first railroad in Texas. I don't think there would be a picture of a rail engine and car on a $100 bill in 1839. And a platform with cotton bails waiting to ship. IMO

    I agree that this note is undoubtedly a reproduction. The original owner probably bought it at the San Jacinto or Alamo gift shop.

    One of the many reasons I only buy PMG graded obsolete currency.
    Thanks for the link Steve; it's a great site.
