Collecting US Coinage is another hobby of mine, and while I don't generally dabble with paper currency I have a general knowledge of the subject. For one, a bank note wouldn't be blank on one side. Secondly a bank note, even a colonial one, would have the issuing bank clearly represented. i.e. Bank of Virginia. That being said I haven't the foggiest what it might be. It could be anything from a piece from a game to a print blank from someone trying to do some note forgery. It is certainly untrigueing... worth hanging on to and investigating.

I live in the area where they used the 8bit reales paper money back in the 1700's, and most all of the small notes were 'blank' on the reverse side. However, out of all the books I justlooked in and the currency from our state, your 'find' hasn't any seal or treasury identification. I have a lot of info on our states money and what you have seems to be from a game of a sort.
