This note celebrated the Women of the South. Lucy H. Pickens, wife of South Carolina Governor Pickens is accorded by tradition and is considered by most to have been the model for the portrait. There is debate on this however, among the leading contenders put forth for the alternate view are Mrs. Clement Clay and Mary Chesnut. An excellent example of one of the more commonly available notes of which over 9 million were printed. This note features a field artillery center vignette and bust of R.M.T. Hunter, at the lower right.
Note is pink and black with a blue web reverse.
Moneta seated with treasure and State arms. An unusual note in that it gives a redeemable date for the same year, Christmas Day, December 25, 1864.
