Keatinge & Ball relocated from Richmond to Columbia, South Carolina in 1862 after Union pressure on the Confederate capital made supply lines unreliable. The firm became the primary printer of late-war Confederate currency, operating under increasingly difficult conditions as paper and ink shortages worsened through 1863 and 1864.
The word "Replica" — or occasionally "Facsimile" — was added to reproductions of this series under the U.S. Hobby Protection Act of 1973, which mandated that imitations of genuine currency be clearly marked. Many unmarked copies circulated as novelties long before that legislation, creating persistent authentication headaches for the series.
