The Farmers' and Mechanics' Bank of Savannah was a modestly sized commercial institution that found itself issuing currency in the opening year of the Confederacy — a period when Southern banks were under enormous pressure to keep notes circulating as specie disappeared from trade. What makes this particular note worth attention is the printer: the American Bank Note Company, based in New York. By the time Georgia seceded in January 1861, contracting with a Northern firm had already become politically untenable, and ABNCo's Southern business collapsed almost entirely within months.
This note almost certainly used plates engraved and held in New York before the break, making it among the last products of that relationship.
