      From: editor@uawlocal1999.org              Counterfeit CSA Stamp on eBay!              http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=5632992018              A bottom margin copy of the counterfeit often attributed to Scott. It is       a 19th century reproduction designed to fill a need for Confederate       material.              Note the short crossbar on the "E" of "FIVE when compared to the "E" of       "CENTS". On the genuine item these are nearly identical in length.              Also note the thickness of the outer frame line. On the genuine item it       should be about the same thickness as the inner frame line around the       corner six pointed stars and trefoils.              Above details quite clear in scan of item. Scan makes good reference       material.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
