This is a nice and 100% authentic 1862 dated Confederate States of America savings bond. This is the style issued under the act of the Confederate Congress on August 19th 1861 in the $1,000 denomination. It is the style that has the likeness of Judah P. Benjamin at the top of the bond. He served as Confederate Secretary of War and also as Secretary of State in the Confederate Government. It has the image of the small child along the bottom of the top section. This one has 30 of the original coupons attached at the bottom. When the date arrived that is printed on the bottom of the coupon you could cash it in for your interest payment. At the bottom edge of the top portion you can see the printer's mark from the firm of B. Duncan of Columbia, South Carolina. It is correctly hand signed and numbered by the Confederate Government officials in fine brown ink. This one is signed by the register of the Confederate Treasury Robert Tyler. Tyler was the son of the 10th President of the United States John Tyler. This is a very
interesting thing to point out to your friends when you who them the bond. This is the Confederate bond listed as Type 124 in the bond book by Ball and as CR100 in Criswell's Confederate bond Book. They state that only 3,099 of these bonds were produced and this one is numbered "679" in ink. This is a very attractive original Confederate states savings bond.
