| Opmerkingen |
Louisiana's 1862 dollar notes were issued under Confederate-aligned state authority as the Union naval blockade and Farragut's April 1862 capture of New Orleans compressed the state's financial options to almost nothing. The timing matters: New Orleans fell before many of these notes could reach widespread circulation in the city, pushing what survived into the interior parishes.
Redemption after the war was never honored by federal authorities, and Louisiana's own postwar government had no obligation — or means — to redeem Confederate-era obligations. Most surviving examples were kept as curiosities rather than tendered for payment.
