This is a very fine original Confederate States of America savings bond. This is the style issued under the act of the Confederate Congress of August 19th 1861 in the $1,000 denomination. In the center of the top it has the likeness of the famous statue in Richmond, Virginia of President George Washington on horseback. This is the image that is often referred to as the "Equestrian Statue". Washington was not only the 1st President but also a Virginian and the Confederacy was proud to claim him. It still has 10 of the original interest coupons present at the bottom. At certain dates the coupons could be cashed in to receive your interest from the bond. The bond is correctly hand signed and numbered in fine old brown ink. This is the style listed as CR-82 in the Confederate bond book by Criswell and as #50 in Ball's book on Confederate Bonds. Nice addition for any collection and will look beautiful when you frame it up for your wall. It measures approximately 13-1/2 inches by 14 inches in overall size.
