Dave Posted October 21, 2006 Report Share Posted October 21, 2006 I don't know if this is even real? For your sake I hope so - See if you can get San Miguel to help you on this one. I know he has some Texas Republic notes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ccg Posted October 21, 2006 Report Share Posted October 21, 2006 Looks like a copy to me. The paper, and serial number don't look right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Irishraider Posted October 21, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 21, 2006 That's what I was thinking also ccq but I sure would hate to be wrong. Especially since this is my bosses and he has entrusted me to sell all of this stuff off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Irishraider Posted October 21, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 21, 2006 Bummer. I believe you are correct. So it is basically novelty and worth squat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
San_Miguel98 Posted October 24, 2006 Report Share Posted October 24, 2006 yup, ccg is right. that crutch williams site is an excellent resource for checking serial #'s to known confederate/texas fakes. other signs that the note is a novelty: weird pinkish color the note's ink is printed so that it looks worn, even though the paper shows no wear and while this isn't exactly a sign, the lack of cancellation cut-marks on texas notes are pretty rare. any note without razor slashes or cutouts should be looked at very carefully, since the difference in value between a note with cut marks and a note without them could mean a few thousand dollars- especially notes with firm wrinkle-free paper like the scan above. most texas notes tend to be limp and wrinkle-prone.
