I bought a similar one a few years back. Yours looks authentic but can never say 100% without having it in my own hand to view. They are only worth about $10.oo.
Of course they are worth more to the collector that needs that particular one to complete a collection. If you are happy with your purchase is all that matters. It was obviously worth it for you to buy. Good luck.
Happy Collecting

Looks authentic. Take a look at the Confederate currency on sale here, http://www.allensinc.com/coins/currency/confederate_currency.htm scroll down to '$10 Horses pulling cannon, Hunter'

There are many reproductions of confederate currency. They can have the word "facsimile" written somewhere on them sometimes in very small letters or have a serial number of known fakes. Some of the known serial numbers for reproductions are at this link. Hope this helps

The note cannot be evaluated from a picture. You need to take it to a professional appraiser.

I haven't the slightest idea if it's real but, wow, whoever is selling it for 35 dollars is either trying to jip someone or is really foolish.
