What is a state of Alabama Confederate 100 dollar bill worth? The date is 1764. Thanks. Get to me as soon as possible.

The south lost the war so confederate money isn't worth the paper it is printed on.

There was no confederacy in 1794, and Alabama wasn't a state until 1819.

If it's an Alabama 1864 $100 bill, then it's worth about $4 to $50, depending on condition.

I doubt OP will get $100 for it; at most a collector would buy it for intrinsict value only and I have to admit, four dollars is pretty high for the paper it is printed on.

I know about the confederacy, but it is still money used by the south who lost the war and devalued as soon as that happened.

Most Confederate bills are counterfeit so without a picture or serial numbers we can't even begin to value this bill

Last 2 weeks of ebay:
Several replicas sold for $2 - 5 each.
One real one sold for $96.
One real one that has been graded by PMG sold for $291. (That has to be crease free and look almost new.)
As I said, expect $4 - 50.
