| Vorderseitenbeschreibung | The obverse is arranged in a horizontal letterpress format with the issuing authority "THE STATE OF NORTH CAROLINA" across the upper register and the denomination "TWO DOLLARS" repeated in both upright and inverted orientations along the lateral borders, creating a distinctive mirror-text security effect. A central vignette occupies the middle field, flanked by large ornate numeral counters — a bold "2" at upper right and a second "2" set within a decorative circular frame at lower left. The redemption clause, place, and date of issue (Raleigh, Oct. 6th, 1861) are inscribed across the face, with the printer's imprint of F. W. Bornemann, Charleston, S.C. along the lower margin. |

North Carolina began issuing its own state currency in 1861 before the Confederate government had established a reliable paper supply — these early state notes filled a practical gap left by the near-total disappearance of specie from circulation in the weeks following secession. F. W. Bornemann operated out of Charleston and handled printing work for several Southern state governments during this window, though his output was constrained by the limited engraving resources available in the Confederacy.
The Criswell CS#22 designation places this within the earliest documented North Carolina state emission. Many notes from this printer show inconsistent ink distribution across the run.
