Civil War Era Wallet From VA w/ CSA Money
<B>Civil War Era Wallet From Virginia with Confederate Currency.</B></I> This tarred canvas money pouch, 7.25” x 4”, conveys optimism with labeled compartments for one, five, ten, twenty, fifty, and one hundred dollar bills. The contents, however, are somewhat more modest, being $115 divided between three Confederate notes. These include the $100 bill featuring Lucy Pickens, the $10 bill showing horse artillery, and a $5 bill dominated by the Confederate capitol building in Richmond. The Pickens note has some aging and is in fine condition. The smaller denomination notes are in extremely fine condition. From an old estate near Rectors Crossroads, Virginia. <BR><BR><B>Provenance:</B></I> <I>The Tharpe Collection of American Military History</B></I> <BR><BR><B>Exhibited:</B></I> <I>The Liberty Heritage Society Museum</B></I><BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Miscellaneous Collectibles, Smal (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
