| Opmerkingen |
Florida's Reconstruction-era fractional notes occupy an unusual place in American fiscal history. The state government, operating under federal military oversight following readmission to the Union in 1868, issued its own small-denomination paper currency to address a chronic shortage of small change — a problem that plagued Southern states throughout the postwar decade, when coin hoarding and general economic dislocation made transactions below a dollar genuinely difficult.
Printed locally in Tallahassee rather than contracted to an established security printer, production quality is accordingly modest. The 3rd issue designation within the Criswell Florida scrip sequence reflects successive attempts to address redemption and counterfeiting concerns with earlier printings.
