CONFEDERATE CURRENCY AND BONDS
Interesting lot of Confederate paper money and bonds, includes: CSA loan bond for $100.00 with 15 maturity coupons, 13" x 13" mounted, issued on June 13, 1862, boldly signed by Robert Tyler as Register of the Treasury; a CSA $100.00 note printed by Hoyer and Ludwig, Richmond, Virginia depicting slaves loading up a wagon with cotton bales. Issued on Sept. 2, 1861 with a printing of 607,227 of which this bill is No. 1489. Paper is clean on both sides with no ink erosion to the signatures. There is however, one small chip at the lower left hand corner and mounting remnants at the corners on verso; CSA $10.00 note printed by Keating and Allen, Columbia, SC, depicting horses pulling cannons into battle. Issued on Feb. 17, 1864 with a printing of 1,333,239 of which this bill is No. 26007 - Series 3 - Plate A. Details remaining clean, very good with one light fold and a verso stain that has some show through; very scarce CSA $50.00 note issued on Sept. 2, 1861, Richmond, Virginia with very little rag - a tell tale sign that it is not genuine. Our example is war date and countersigned "COUNTERFEIT" three times! Also, A Bank of the State of South Carolina bearer note for 15 cents issued of Feb. 1, 1863. This note is mounted and has a chip that detracts from the signature which disqualifies it from being assigned a grade. Five pieces.

Estimate: $200 - 300.
