Keattinge & Ball operated in Columbia, South Carolina, and became the primary Confederate-affiliated engraving and printing firm after the war disrupted access to Northern printers. By 1863 they were handling a significant volume of Southern bank and state currency, often working from hastily cut plates that lacked the precision of pre-war American Bank Note Company work — a fact visible under magnification on most K&B-printed notes.
The Bank of Chattanooga operated in a city that changed hands multiple times during the war. Union forces occupied Chattanooga in September 1863, effectively ending the bank's ability to function. Notes printed that year almost certainly saw little or no redemption.
