Confederate States of America Twenty Dollars of 1864 (P.69), good Fine with typical tiny notches at top/bottom of vertical folds. Offered together with a most interesting Two Dollar note of the State of Missouri, 1862 issue. Although taped back together from three pieces, and with lower-left corner missing, back of note bears a carefully-written note of more than 30 lines, seemingly lamenting the war-time pressure on soldiers to accept paper notes of this kind in payment, in place of hard gold-backed currency. A fascinating first-hand account of the dire economic challenges of the time. Lot of 2 notes
