Confederate money was created by the South during the American Civil War as a means to establish an independent economy. According to CSANotes.com, the first Confederate money was issued in April of 1861 and continued to be issued until 1864 (the year before the war ended). The highest denomination was $1,000, the lowest 50 cents. The Union (North) attempted to weaken the Southern economy by releasing counterfeit money into the Southern states to inflate the economy.

Feel the edges of the money. Most notes were cut by hand using shears or scissors. If it is rough or uneven, it is probably authentic. Be careful, though--due to the age of the paper, it might crumble or rip easily.

Find the denomination of the note. According to CSACurrency.com, Confederate money was only released in $1,000, $500, $100, $50, $20, $5, $2 and $1 dollar notes; along with a 50 cent paper note.

Use a good light source (a strong lamp) and a magnifying glass to check the signatures on the notes. All authentic Confederate money was hand-signed before release. The 50 cent notes have signatures of “Ro. Tyler” and “El Elmore”; others have signatures of the Register and Treasurer of the Confederacy (different men worked under those organizations at different times).

Locate the serial numbers. All Confederate notes have at least one serial number stamped or handwritten on them. Most of the serial numbers will be located on the top or bottom corners of the notes.

Check the color of the paper. Notes of a lower denomination (especially the 50 cent notes) were printed on pink paper. All others were printed on white. Remember that the color of the notes may have darkened over time due to overuse or the natural aging of the ink.

Call on a knowledgeable antique dealer; preferably one well versed in Civil War history. Most will be able to give you an idea if the money is real or not, as well as an estimate of how valuable the notes are in today's currency.

Tip

Correctly identified authentic Confederate currency is rare and can be extremely valuable. For example, in 2009, CSANotes.com listed prices from $50 to more than $3,000 depending on the denomination and condition of the note.

Just because a note is no longer pink or white in color doesn’t mean that it's a fake. Age and overuse might have dulled the original colors, and if the paper was issued later in the war, it is likely the dying Confederacy was using poorer quality material.

Warning

Fake notes, or replicas, were made after the war and are still made today. They are usually printed on brown or white paper, have missing signatures or serial numbers, and smudged pictures. Some even have the word “facsimile” printed on them.

Paul Reed Smith began making top-of-the-line guitars in Maryland in 1985. At the time of publication, the guitars are being made in the United States and South Korea. To properly identify a model, locate the model number and determine which country the guitar was made in. The information for making this determination is contained on the front and rear sides of the guitar headstock, and in the serial number. One exception is the signature models, such as the Santana I and Santana II guitars. In addition to model numbers these guitars have artwork on the fretboard showing a soaring bird.

Determine the Model and Country of Origin

Handwritten Notes Ipad

Examine the front of the headstock for the model number, which appears there in large letters. This identifies the model of the guitar.

Sweet dreams kristen ashley epub bud grey. Look for the word 'Korea' on the front and on the back side of the headstock. If it appears on either side, the guitar is a South Korean-made model.

Examine the serial number on the back of the headstock for the letter K. The K indicates that the guitar is a South Korean-made model.

Determine whether the serial number is handwritten or is a graphic reproduction. A handwritten serial number indicates that the guitar was made in the United States.

Tip

In 2001 Gibson Guitar Company obtained an injunction against PRS, prohibiting it from making its Single Cut model because it infringed on on the Gibson trademark. This was later reversed by appellate courts. Players and collectors often differentiate between Single Cut models made before and after the injunction. When the injunction was vacated, PRS resumed making the same Single Cut. This is one model, not two.
