| Beschrijving voorzijde | Printed in black with serial number in red, the note carries a left vignette of a Confederate sailor resting against a capstan, rendered in fine intaglio style. The central vignette presents a sailing vessel under full sail, flanked by the denomination in letterpress to the right and along the bottom border. The issuing authority text and promise-to-pay legend are set in bold serif type across the face. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse is essentially plain, printed on unadorned paper with no engraved design. The surface shows traces of manuscript notations and handwritten endorsements bled through from use in circulation, consistent with the unprinted backs typical of this Confederate issue. |

| Opmerkingen |
Hoyer & Ludwig were a Richmond lithography firm with no prior banknote printing experience when the Confederacy turned to them in 1861 — the established American Bank Note Company in New York was, obviously, no longer an option. The results show it. CS#18 lithographs lack the intaglio depth of contemporaneous Union issues, and the paper supply was already inconsistent by the time this series entered production.
No security features of any kind. The Confederacy was aware counterfeiting would be a problem and was largely powerless to stop it.
