Description
Colorful and Boldly Printed T15 $50
T15 $50 1861 Cr. 79.Outside of the Montgomery notes printed in New York, the Type 15 $50 is one of the most ornate and beautifully designed of the 1861 Confederate issues. Officially, it was printed by the Southern Bank Note Company. In reality, the office in New Orleans was a branch of the American Bank Note Company that rebranded itself after the start of the war. That had rebranding did not last long as the presses were seized when the Union rolled into New Orleans in early 1862.
Many survivors are cancelled examples that were redeemed and pulled from the Treasury archives after the war.
The Southern Bank Note Co. employed a deep orange underprint in complementing the incredible artwork. We have offered just three problem free About Uncirculated examples, pieces that realized $21,150 to $30,550. This PCGS Extremely Fine 45 has mention of mounting remnants from the grading service, the one issue that might have the least possible impact on value of any grade limiting factor. The colors are stunning and the paper is creamy tan, crisp, and still features embossing. This note embodies all the elements of a typical J. Wayne Hilton note - a simply stunning piece.
