This is a beautiful original 1862 dated Confederate States of America $100 bill. This is the version with the slaves hoeing cotton in the center. In the lower left hand side is the pictures of states' rights activist John C. Calhoun. Along the right hand edge is the image that is referred to as the "Confederacy Personified". The note is correctly hand signed and numbered and is 100% authentic. This is one well-designed piece of Confederate currency. If you notice it has the ink date of issuance December 15th 1862 on the upper right front of the note. This is a nice touch on an already cool Confederate note. The paper also has the "J Whatman 1862" watermarking. On the back of the note, it has the stamp where it was issued at Montgomery, Alabama and had the interest paid in Montgomery and Columbus, Mississippi. This pattern of note is the version of Confederate currency that is listed as T-41 in Criswell's Confederate currency book. This one was professionally graded by the Paper Money Guaranty firm and they graded it has "VERY FINE". This fine original piece of Confederate history comes in an acid free holder for display and preservation.
