1864 $50 Confederate States of America T-66 PF-13 Note -PCGS VF35! Civil War Era
This T-66 Note is one of the most recognizable examples of Confederate Treasury currency from the final major issue of the Civil War. Features a central portrait of Jefferson Davis, President of the Confederate States (the only Confederate president). Keatinge & Ball (Columbia, South Carolina) handled engraving and printing for T-66 and most late-war notes.
Edward Keatinge, an English engraver formerly with the American Bank Note Company in New York, moved South in 1861 at the invitation of Treasury Secretary Christopher Gustavus Memminger. He partnered with lawyer Thomas Ball (and briefly William Leggett). The firm started in Richmond but relocated to Columbia for safety as Union forces threatened the area. Operations ended when Sherman's forces captured Columbia in February 1865. Notes were hand-signed and numbered by Treasury clerks (hundreds employed, including women) in Richmond before distribution.
