The Last $10 Confederate Currency Note

This colorful note was the last $10 note issued by the Confederacy. The front features a popular vignette of a stampeding horse-drawn artillery caisson alongside Confederate Cabinet member Robert M.T. Hunter.

Like all Confederate notes, this one comes hand-signed and numbered by a Confederate soldier or a member of his family.

Fine To Very Fine Condition

More than 150 years old, it’s remarkable that any of these historic pieces of Civil War history have survived. Printed in large sheets and hastily cut so they could circulate as fast as possible, it’s not uncommon for these notes to have uneven margins Plus, most were destroyed following the Southern defeat in the Civil War because they were deemed worthless with no government to back them with hard assets. But the notes available here all come in moderately circulated Fine to Very Fine (F–VF) condition.

Now you can travel back in time to an era when brother fought against brother for the very fate of the nation itself. Add this 1864 $10 Confederate Note to your collection today!
