Here is an original 1862 dated Confederate States of America $100.00 bill issued from Richmond, Virginia. This is the version with the steam train in the center with the steam ship in the background of the train scene. This is the pattern of note listed in Criswell's currency book as T-39. This is the pattern with the straight steam coming out of the smokestack of the steam train engine. In the lower left hand corner is the image of a milk-maid carrying the milk bucket. This note is correctly hand signed and numbered and is 100% authentic. It has the hand-written ink date of issuance of June 6th 1862. On the back of the note it has the markings where the Confederate government paid the interest due for the year. What makes it extra special is that it has the 1865 interest that was paid at the depository in Wilmington, North Carolina by Henry Savage. Ironically, Henry Savage was appointed to Miller's position after Savage's brother died in the office. This is a scarce marking. It also has the 1863 and 1864 dated Richmond, Virginia interest payment markings. This is a nice touch on an already cool Confederate note. This is one very attractive piece of Confederate currency. The note is in attractive lightly circulated condition. The piece of Confederate history comes in an acid free holder for display and preservation.
