B. Duncan of Columbia, South Carolina printed several Confederate denominations under contract during 1862, operating well outside the main Richmond printing establishment. The $2 denomination was always the odd note in Confederate series — low-value paper currency was distrusted by a public that had functioned on coin for generations, and twos circulated poorly as a result.
Duncan's output from this period is generally considered cruder than contemporaneous Richmond work, and the paper quality varied considerably depending on what stock could be sourced through the blockade.
