<p>[QUOTE=&quot;FrankB, post: 2336184, member: 77182&quot;]Folks, I am from Chattanooga and can tell you the Bank of Chattanooga was indeed a banking institution in Chattanooga before and during the Civil War.&nbsp; I also have a $2.00 and $3.00 bill, both of which originated from the Bank of Chattanooga.&nbsp; The Bank closed when the Union forces took control of Chattanooga and never opened it&#039;s doors again.&nbsp; Your note probably does not have much monetary value due to the condition but it&#039;s a great conversation piece.&nbsp; These notes are likely more difficult to find than CSA (Confederate States of America) since there were fewer printed.</p><p><br /></p><p>With all due respect stevenmaggard, these were not printed on the back of Bank of Tennessee notes and I do believe history will show there were no $1,000,000.00 notes printed.&nbsp; Here is a reference to early Chattanooga history:</p><p><a href="https://books.google.com/books/about/Standard_History_of_Chattanooga_Tennesse.html?id=_R9EAQAAMAAJ" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://books.google.com/books/about/Standard_History_of_Chattanooga_Tennesse.html?id=_R9EAQAAMAAJ" rel="nofollow">https://books.google.com/books/about/Standard_History_of_Chattanooga_Tennesse.html?id=_R9EAQAAMAAJ</a></p><p><br /></p><p>For further reference, this provides the best reference I have found online.</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://www.schafluetzel.org/.../Bank%20of%20Chattanooga%20Article5.pdf" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.schafluetzel.org/.../Bank%20of%20Chattanooga%20Article5.pdf" rel="nofollow">www.schafluetzel.org/.../Bank%20of%20Chattanooga%20Article5.pdf</a> (Cited from: <a href="https://www.cointalk.com/threads/three-dollar-bill.58293/" class="internalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.cointalk.com/threads/three-dollar-bill.58293/">https://www.cointalk.com/threads/three-dollar-bill.58293/</a>) reference will provide some great information.</p><p><br /></p><p>Here are scans from $2.00 and $3.00 bills from my father&#039;s collection issued by the Bank of Chattanooga, both front and reverse sides.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
