PandaMan-migration Posted May 22, 2006 Report Share Posted May 22, 2006 Do they really mean a fax image of the note? I really doubt that, but you never know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PandaMan-migration Posted May 22, 2006 Author Report Share Posted May 22, 2006 And people not only sell these, but others actually buy them? Doesn't make sense.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PandaMan-migration Posted May 26, 2006 Author Report Share Posted May 26, 2006 The previous query was not rhetorical. Why would people buy such a thing? It has no value, does it? Gary Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MunkyMan95 Posted May 26, 2006 Report Share Posted May 26, 2006 Some have value. I've got a facsimilie Confederate piece that my local dealer sells for $50. I got it from my grandfather. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PandaMan-migration Posted May 26, 2006 Author Report Share Posted May 26, 2006 (edited) Wow. Just seems odd to me. I guess if a piece is so exceedingly rare, it might work that way. Thanks Chad. Edited May 27, 2006 by PandaMan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MunkyMan95 Posted May 27, 2006 Report Share Posted May 27, 2006 No problem. The facsimilie usually sells for around $3200 even in shotty grades. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MunkyMan95 Posted May 30, 2006 Report Share Posted May 30, 2006 A few years back I wanted to buy the real thing, but I didn't know how much it was worth. I offered the guy my roll of SAE's and he basically threw them in my face and couldn't control his laughter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BankNote-migration Posted June 5, 2006 Report Share Posted June 5, 2006 A couple of things.Facsimile are reproductions which can be contemporary or modern.Contemporary facsimile are collected while modern ones are not.Modern ones have no collector value.Hopefully the facsimile you paid $50 for was a contemporary, BankNote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BankNote1 Posted June 7, 2006 Report Share Posted June 7, 2006 I had a collector friend bring me a currency album of Confederate notes that he wanted me to sell for him. Everyone of the notes were marked Facsimile! I know that he knows better or I would of thought he did anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gary You might as well ask why people don't pay face vaule for currency. People collect what makes them happy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
