Description

T23 $10 1861 PF-1 Cr. 153 PMG Very Fine 30.
Printed from a printing plate donated by the Mechanics Savings Bank of Savannah that was modified, this note includes a portrait of John E. Ward, former Mayor of Savannah and President of the Mechanics Savings Bank. The exact allegiances of Ward during the war are quite cloudy. Although he has traditionally been portrayed as a Unionist, there is also clear evidence that he assisted the Confederacy with a number of diplomatic missions in Europe and China during the war. This example has seen circulation, but does not seem to have suffered any significant damage or problems aside from even wear. The red-orange protectors and design elements are in decent condition, retaining much of their color and brightness.
