Interesting mixed lot comprising a Confederate $100 note (Richmond issue), a Tallahassee Rail Road Company $1 note, a State of Georgia $1 note, and related Civil War–era paper currency material illustrating Southern financial conditions during the war, along with two carte de visite photographs bearing U.S. revenue stamps from the early tax period. The currency pieces reflect wartime inflation and the widespread use of private and state-issued scrip, while the CDVs, including one identified as Colonel Alfred Bayard Nettleton, demonstrate the federal taxation of photographic materials beginning in 1862. The group offers a representative cross-section of Civil War economic and social history, combining Southern monetary instruments with Northern tax-related photographic artifacts. Pickup & Shipping: Free pickup in Gardnerville, NV. FedEx Ground/Home Delivery within the continental U.S.: $30 + 1.5% insurance (unless waived in writing). Combined shipping available

Condition

Good overall, with folds, toning, scattered staining, and handling wear to notes; CDVs with light edge wear.
