South Carolina Budget Shortfall Not Fixed by Stimulus Money

South Carolina auctioning Civil War era state currency on eBay
State archives quietly sell Civil War era South Carolina currency online to ease budgets. About 40 boxes originally slated for destruction have yielded around $200,000 as uncut sheets and loose bills fetch high bids. Retired USC professor Jack Meyer sorts and curates the collection, finding rare notes and preserving samples for the archives.
