Description: 1864 $50 Confederate States of America T-66 Banknote - Crisp Uncirculated! Color! Exceptional Color & Eye Appeal! Crisp Choice Uncirculated Civil War Era Confederate Banknote! In 1864, the tide of the war was beginning to turn. The North was reeling off victory after victory, and Jefferson Davis — the first and only president of the Confederate States of America — could do little but hope that General Robert E. Lee and the “boys of the Confederacy” would regain control. But they never did, and by the end of April 1865, the Confederacy was no more. More than 150 years old, it’s remarkable that any of these historic pieces of Civil War history have survived. Most were destroyed following the Southern defeat in the Civil War because they were deemed worthless with no government to back them with hard assets. An interesting fact about these notes is that each was personally hand-signed by the wife of a Confederate officer. Southern Treasury officials claimed this was done as an anti-counterfeiting measure. The fact of the matter, however, was that the sheer number of bills being printed meant the notes could not be individually signed by Southern treasury officials. Instead, a small army of women were often hired to sign the various notes! This note represented a lot of money in 1864, but as the fortunes of war continued to turn against the Confederacy, Southern currency underwent the depreciation and soaring prices characteristic of inflation. So much so that by the end of the war a cake of soap could sell for as much as $50! Please Check out Our Web Site : antebellumnumismatics. com where you can see many new purchases and other listings.
