At the start of the Civil War, the Confederate States of America began issuing both notes and coins. The first series of Confederate Notes was authorized by the Confederate Congress on March 9, 1861. Throughout the war, these paper notes were mainly produced in Richmond, Virginia, or Columbia, South Carolina.

Confederate currency has several unique features. Physically, no two Confederate Notes are exactly the same since most were cut from printed sheets by hand, not machine. This results in uneven edges from one note to the next. Additionally, many notes were given handwritten serial numbers and signatures instead of being stamped or printed.

On the obverse of the 1864 Confederate States of America Notes, you’ll find an ornate design. The central image shows Confederate soldiers on horseback pulling a cannon. In the bottom-right corner, there is a portrait of Robert M.T. Hunter, a significant figure who served as a U.S. Representative from Virginia and later as the Confederate States Secretary of State and a Confederate Senator.

The reverse of the 1864 $10 CSA Notes features a simple design. It displays the word “TEN” at the center with the numeric value “10” in each corner.
