| Opmerkingen |
Mississippi was one of the few Confederate states to issue its own paper currency independently of Richmond, and these 1862 state notes were a direct response to a coin shortage that had become acute within months of secession. The Jackson printings were produced under difficult conditions — local printers lacked the engraving capacity of Northern houses, and the state cycled through multiple contractors across the war years.
P#S1375 is known with several minor typographic variants, a predictable consequence of repeated plate repairs and substitutions. Genuine cancellations on surviving examples are common, as unredeemed notes were formally cancelled rather than destroyed after the war.
