[QUOTE="Tracy62, post: 3614661, member: 103984"]I know absolutely nothing about paper currency, so if this has been asked before, please bear with me. I didn't find anything while searching the forum, so here goes... I found this New Orleans Canal Bank $20 Note last week and it just caught my eye for the following reasons: 1. I have a dear friend who lives in New Orleans. 2. It was just before Hurricane Barry hit land and I wanted a memento, just in case New Orleans sunk in the Gulf (ok, not really, but kinda...) 3. It's in perfect condition. 4. I just thought the note was beautiful. I know it's obsolete and can't be used as currency, but I have a couple of questions: 1. Is it real? 2. Does it have any value? [IMG]https://i.imgur.com/zQtdEKr.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]https://i.imgur.com/qqD2DNp.jpg[/IMG] I did find an uncut sheet of 4 of these for sale on a website for $165, but am not sure if a single note has any value. Any info anyone can share on this item is greatly appreciated.[/QUOTE]
