Description

Military Endorsement "Samuel Prince Capt. AQM" T39 $100 1862 PF-13 Cr. 296 PMG Very Fine 30.
Samuel Prince was serving with the 8th Mississippi Infantry Regiment as Captain and AQM when he issued this note at Bridgeport, AL, on May 21, 1863. The 8th was camped on the Tennessee River at Bridgeport, AL, until July 1863 after participating in the Battle of Murfreesboro. Bridgeport was considered to be an important strategic location due to its proximity to the river and a key rail line. Subsequently, the unit saw action in the Atlanta Campaign and later participated in actions in Tennessee and North Carolina. The remnants of the unit surrendered on April 26, 1865. A rare endorsement and place of issue, with only three examples known at present and only the second we have been privileged to offer.
