Message:: [QUOTE="Collecting Nut, post: 26070431, member: 74863"]It’s graded by PCGS Currency as a Very Fine 35. It does have circulation issues like a small split and folds but it’s a great bill. I’ve had this for years and mentioned it on CT but no photos until now.The main scene is Slaves hoeing cotton. The note is T-41, a $100.00 note dated August 20th, 1862. It was issued in Charleston S.C. and printed by Keatinge & Ball. There are 3 Interest paid stamps on the back side, all in Atlanta. The bill circulated but only in one area. There is also a round stamp on the back from September 5, 1862 and the hand written word Issued. That is considered a rare stamp. The serial number of the note is hand written, which was normal.The one item that makes this note so rare is the serial number. As noted on the PCGS Currency sleeve, the Plate Number is Z and the Serial Number is 2. That is the lowest serial number ever discovered on a CSA Note and I have owned this note for just over 10 years. To date, it’s still the lowest. I paid a small but considerable amount in the low four digit range. I have been offered a high four digit amount but it’s not for sale. It is truly a great note to have.[ATTACH=full]1660179[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1660180[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1660181[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
