    1861 T-23 The Confederate States of America note.
    This high quality note was printed by Leggett, Keatine & Ball in late 1861. The design was developed from a note from the Mechanics Savings Bank of Savannah, Georgia. At the center is a wagon loaded with cotton. "The Corn Gatherer" is shown at the lower right. The portrait on the lower left was, for 50 years, thought to be Williamson S. Oldham, a Confederate States Senator from Texas. However, the identity was finally solved and published in a 1917
    Numismatist
    article. The portrait is John Elliot Ward, a President of the Mechanics Bank, a holder of several government offices, and a person opposed to secession. He left the South and went to New York City to practice law.
    This scarce Civil War era note grades Fine with two hammer-cut cancellations.
