<p>[QUOTE="ThinnPikkins, post: 1235476, member: 32346"]Ok, well usually i am all for the coins. Recently i have been eyeing paper currency since gold and all is getting to the point of no return (i still buy A LITTLE silver. ase, silver bars, art bars...). I came across this note on ebay and honestly i am a sucker for anything with historic significance so i bought it because it was not overly expensive, and it was more of an impulse buy because i saw it probably within the last 2 minutes of the auction and just went with it.</p><p><br /></p><p>Anyhow, the seller did not have a picture of the reverse so this is all i went off of. I did a little research and kept coming up with 1862 3 dollar bills, but no 1866. I know a couple of "faker than a 3 dollar bill" jokes will ensue here but it does look cool nonetheless and really would not bother me as i paid practically nothing im going to miss for it. Any info or finger pointing will be appreciated, i usually am a silent type because i read alot of these threads and other imformational material so questions usually dont get asked alot as i find the info i need somewhere on the webs. </p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH]131950.vB[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>Anywho, this would mark my 1st post that actually had some meat to it, and no i did not join because i did not know what i bought or needed to know value, i bought this note yesterday as a matter of fact and i am really a coin guy. even though paper currency is out of my comfort zone i do enjoy old and historic money of any kind! What would a fellow like me enjoy collecting in paper currency, any suggestions. i know i like over the top designs and a lot of detail. One bill that does intrigue me is the 1899 silver certificate, anything with detail like that would tickle my fancy, suggestions would be appreciated!!!<img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie8" alt=":D" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>

I came across this note on ebay and honestly i am a sucker for anything with historic significance so i bought it because it was not overly expensive, and it was more of an impulse buy because i saw it probably within the last 2 minutes of the auction and just went with it. Anyhow, the seller did not have a picture of the reverse so this is all i went off of. I did a little research and kept coming up with 1862 3 dollar bills, but no 1866. I know a couple of "faker than a 3 dollar bill" jokes will ensue here but it does look cool nonetheless and really would not bother me as i paid practically nothing im going to miss for it.
