This is a very fine original Confederate States of America savings bond. This is the style issued under the act of the Confederate Congress of February 20th 1863 in the $100 denomination. The scene in the center has the likeness of Robert Hunter who served as Confederate Secretary of State and a C.S. Senator. Before the War he was a U.S. Congressman and Senator from Virginia. The view shows Hunter in his usual "strictly business" manner and he is flanked by the three females that were to represent Law, Liberty and Justice. It still has 22 of the original interest coupons present at the bottom. At certain dates the coupons could be cashed in to receive your interest from the bond. The bond is correctly hand signed and numbered in fine old brown ink. This is the style listed as 92 in the Confederate bond book by Ball and as CR-39 in the Criswell Bond Book. The COnfederate Government issued only 1,752 of these bonds and this one is numbered "1100" in ink. This one will make a nice addition for any collection and will look beautiful when you frame it up for your wall. It measures approximately 14 inches by 14 inches in size.
