A Remarkable Piece of Civil War History
By 1864, the American Civil War had placed enormous pressure on the Confederate economy. Currency was issued to finance military operations and government expenses, while inflation and shortages created serious economic challenges throughout Confederate-controlled territory.
The 1864 $10 Confederate Treasury Note reflects this difficult chapter in American history.
The T-68 design features a Confederate artillery scene alongside a portrait of R. M. T. Hunter, who served as Confederate Secretary of State and a Confederate senator.
Today, surviving Confederate banknotes are collected as historical artifacts that help document the financial, political, and social realities of the Civil War.
