About 100 that you'd rip off and redeem. Only 1 or 2 were ever redeemed. Poor, racist Johnny Reb.

that was 70 years ago. they are probably worth something now that the south has risen again.

I include govt. bonds in that descriptor. The amphorae recently uncovered on a French farm stuffed with like 20,000 (maybe more) coins from the breakaway Gallic Empire province around 270 CE. Just what was happening to cause them to bury that amount of coinage? Must've been quite bad. Cheers

i keep one of each, women quarter and such . a cheap hobby at that level.

If the vikings had invented crypto currency they wouldn't need to pillage france.

have a nice morning, wolfie

i am somewhat outraged that a living person is being pressed into usa coinage.

. . . as I was growing up in a tiny, cotton-picking crossroads south Mississippi town in the 1950's . . . Granddad told me: "Save that Confederate money, son, the South will rise again!!"

It was the gold to be paid by the Union after conclusion of a peace treaty with the Confederacy.

There were three issues of Confederate promissory notes, to be paid in gold six months, a year, and eighteen months respectively after the peace treaty. This was printed on the notes.

The last issue was early 1865 after it was already obvious they were losing.

Another aside:
My favorite display of Confederate memorabilia is in New York City.
In the museum above Grant's Tomb is the flag Robert E Lee handed over as part of the surrender ceremony.

is the modern take on groucho's "who is buried in grant's tomb?'

Not Grant, he's in a sarcophagus.

However ...

Will reduce the estate to zero. Where it belongs.

Here's a photo of the place captured from google maps. I used to work in Kennesaw up until about 15 years ago and occasionally would eat lunch at a mom & pop diner (their peach cobbler was the best) near that store. One time (and one time only) out of curiosity I went inside, it was every bit as bad (and then some) as the storefront would suggest. Totally disorganized with crap strewn everywhere. The only way they managed to stay in business was that there was a large enough clientele of like minded racists in the area.

Hopefully the court fight will be the end of that awful place.

Wish you had a photo of the bumper stickers!!!

No surprise.
