Biographical History
During the Civil War, the Confederate States of America issued their own currency notes. These circulated like cash, but were technically bills of credit. At the beginning of the war, they circulated widely, but by the end of the war they had lost nearly all their value. Many of the bills remained in private hands after the war and became collectible as memorabilia. Other bills, which the Union Army had confiscated, were in the hands of the United States War Department; it transferred them to the Treasury Department in 1867. In 1912, the Treasury Department disbursed many of these bills to cultural institutions around the country, in the interest of public education.
