Description

The listing, 1863 Rare 10 Cent Note! Indian Head and 1943 Steel Lincoln Penny has ended.

Authorized by the Act of March 3rd, 1863. Here you have a very rare and beautiful.... 10 Cent American Bank Note. From the Civil War Era.

Small compared to a Dollar Note, but can you imagine what you could buy for 10 Cents back in 1863. I know a good horse or donkey would bring a lot. Missouri Mules were a premium!

Yep these are just like a dollar only about 1/3 of the size. Enclosed in a plastic case to preserve as it is now very fragile. Also included is a much more common 1863 Indian Head Cent and an 1943 Steel War Penny, (from another war and another time).

Isn't it beautiful! And to think Great great Grandpa may have carried these around in his wallet!

Sometimes called postal currency... Because it evolved from stamps.. Because everyone was hoarding all the coins as the war grew. This is what I have heard. My question is what coins were being hoarded? The indian head cent like the one that is also in auction??

Heck, I cannot even decide if I like coin collecting more for the Art or the History! LoL
