    I see nothing with it that suggest that it is anything other than what it appears to be, a nice original note on period paper - the paper then was made from linen and rags and is actually somewhat thicker than later notes because of the manufacturing process and materiels used to make the paper.

    Do you see shiny specks embedded in the paper? If my memory holds, they used to embed flakes of Micra into the paper to deter counterfeiting.
