Product Description
This CONFEDERATE SHIPS Currency of The American Civil War uncirculated U.S. $2 Bill is Genuine Authentic Legal Tender of the United States, which has been enhanced with beautiful colorized images on top of a new $2 Bill. The Confederate States of America printed their own paper money during the Civil War, from 1861 to 1864.
A total of 70 different types were issued into circulation. Almost every Confederate note was painstakingly hand signed and numbered. Seen on several Confederate notes were images of naval ships. The Confederacy had to start from almost nothing in building a navy. Merchant ships and warships were needed to transport and to defend harbors and rivers. The Confederate also needed ships capable of breaking the Union Blockade. In ships, they were outnumbered more than 3 to 1; in enlisted ranks, more than 10 to 1. Yet, the Confederate Navy employed technologies that, in time, became essential to naval warfare, including the reconstruction of a captured Union ship to make the first "ironclad" in the Civil War: the CSS Virginia.
Each bill comes displayed in a blue folio with a Certificate of Authenticity to guarantee that your bills are authentic and recognized by every monetary authority around the world, therefore assuring its Collector Edition status. Each $2 Bill is in FRESH, CRISP, UNCIRCULATED condition, and was directly removed from untouched wrapped Federal Reserve sealed packs.
