I would not have expected a counterfeit in the mix, but there was a confederate $100 Calhoun 1862 note that is well worn to a fair condition.

Thought two may have been glued together front side showing, but that doesn’t appear to be so. Even if real this note would not be worth much but now, I am curious if any member has seen a fake with both sides displaying the front side. If so,where were they sold if known?
