[QUOTE="bobbeth87, post: 1521695, member: 18369"]A friend inherited a collection from his late mother and it not interested in anything except silver. So, he let me look at a couple of notes and asked me to make an offer....he knows nothing about them. The first one was a 1000 note from the Bank of the United States.

The other note is pictured below. I don't know anything about it. A couple of things bother me about it. The paper that it is printed on is brittle and translucent. The note's margins apear to have been handcut. And, there are no signatures on the note. If there are any obsolete experts on here, please let me know if this is real, the approximate value if it is real, and/or a resource I could go to to see for myself. THANKS.
