Montgomery notes are considered to be the most important notes produced by the Confederate States of America. Regarded as the trophy series of the South; there are approximately 186 known survivors for the $50 denominated example. Printed by the National Bank Note Company in New York City one month before the South seceded from the Union; these notes were printed in sheets of $50-$100-$500-$1000. Historically significant and immensely important to the Confederates determined attempt to withdrawal from the Union; this example embodies the passion and commitment of their ill-fated struggle. The design used for this denomination is the most “Southern” for the series which depicts three slaves hoeing in a cotton field. The back of the note is inscribed “N. Orleans June 5th 1861” and signed by “A(thony) J. Guirot; Assist(ant) Treas(ure) C(onfederate) S(tates). Overall; this example maintains its dark green color; bold signatures and pleasing margins. Unlike most Montgomery notes; this example is not cancelled nor does it bear any negative comments from PMG. This choice example also possesses exceptional eye appeal; print detail and is nearly fully framed. This is one of the FINEST examples we have handled and deserves a place of prominence in any significant numismatic collection.
