The note is printed on one side only and has the hand inscribed serial number “126881”. “Cotton Pledged” on face in green. The original 1863 hand signed “One Dollar” Confederate note was engraved by “Keatinge & Ball Columbia SC” and has the hand inscribed serial number “55699” in brown ink. Clement C. Clay is pictured at center. The note was printed on pink paper with a plain back. There were about 200 different people who signed for each treasury official. For the most part they were women, many the wives or daughters of Confederate soldiers who had been killed in action. The artifacts were recovered from the Fredericksburg, Virginia battlefields. The brass buttons at center were issued on Confederate uniforms. The lead ammunition at left are; a .44 Colt “Army” Model, a .52 Sharps carbine generally used by the cavalry branch of service and a .58 round for the Springfield rifle or other imported arms of that caliber. The lead ammunition at right are; a .69 Musket ball used by both sides, a Federal issue for the .52 Spencer carbine and a Confederate issue .57 Enfield. The Spencer used a brass cartridge the others used a paper cartridge which has not survived in the ground. The white color or patina is due to oxidation in the ground. The hand made solid Oak frame is 12” x 16” (glass) in size. All of the frame and display work was done in our cabinet shop here in Fredericksburg, Virginia. The frame is ready to hang. The wire is recessed which allows the frame to rest flat back to the wall as in a museum mount. The “bumpons” on each back corner protect the wall and keep the frame level. All of the artifacts are guaranteed to be original as stated. A hand signed and dated “Certificate of Authenticity” will be issued by Collectors Frame with a photograph and description of the items purchased. Please see our "About” for more information on the framing and artifacts.
