Paper money, paper money, paper money. You have heard it and seen it on the show more and more recently. Probably more than you have ever at one point in time in our 30+ years on television. While we have offered it more, our loyal customers do not mind it. In fact, they ask for MORE of it. We do the best we can to oblige in those requests.
From a collector’s perspective, the variety of paper money and currency out there is extensive and complicated and quite frankly, huge. But if you think deeply for a second about the most popular paper money out there, what comes to mind? For us, it is the paper money issued from the South during the Civil War era. Also known as Confederate Paper Money.
While this variety of paper money has its own set of varieties and types, we found the general topic of Confederate notes to be too broad to fit into one blog. This blog series looks to dissect and explain the background of the notes, the many different issues, grading, buying, selling, catalog prices, and more. We will also look more deeply into individual paper money by the Southern States not to mention counterfeit and altered notes on top of the ending of the series.
Stay tuned for more information on upcoming blogs on the vast world of paper money concerning Confederate issues.
