Opmerkingen

Louisiana's state government issued its own currency in 1862 after federal blockades and the fall of New Orleans in April of that year effectively severed the state from normal financial channels. These notes were authorized by the Confederate-aligned state administration scrambling to keep commerce functional in the interior, well after Union forces had taken control of the city where most of the state's banking infrastructure was concentrated.

The $3 denomination was common among Southern emergency issues — chosen to fill gaps left by the disappearance of small coinage from circulation. Redemption was never meaningfully honored.
