I found a bunch of confederate money, does it have any value?

"Today, the value of these notes are far from worthless. Their prices range from under one-hundred dollars for the most common and heavily printed series, to the tens of thousands for the rarest. Most of the heavily printed issues are still available to some extent, while the less common series are getting extremely hard to find. One thing is certain though, all Confederate currency makes as a good investment and has shown to steadily increase in value over the years. "
Definitely take it to an appraiser of these sort of things.

It does, but to find out how much you would need to go to someone that handles rare/antique money. The value to them would depend on lots of things that are too numerous to get into.
As far as face value, confederate money is worth nothing.

Certainly if it's real and not a reproduction, as historical items they will have worth to a museum or collector. I would recommend finding an appraiser in your area (ideally one that specializes in rare/antique coins) , the 'net's good for that research, and getting a few estimates.
If you plan on keeping it, then also ask about ideas for conservation and insurance.
