Description

"CSA" Watermarked Paper - Single Block. PCGS Choice About New 58.
On April 27, 1862 the Confederate blockade runner Bermuda was captured by the USS Mercedita and taken to Philadelphia. Her cargo, which included a shipment of banknote paper bound for the Confederacy, was ordered sold by the Federal Courts. The Treasury Department purchased most of the "CSA" watermarked banknote paper and used it for a number of purposes, including Fractional Currency Specimen Notes of the second and third issues. These have routinely been bringing a three figure price in our sales.
