| Opmerkingen |
North Carolina was unusual among Confederate states in issuing its own fractional currency rather than relying solely on Richmond. By 1863 the Confederate small-change shortage had become acute — hoarding of coins was near-total — and state governments stepped in to fill the gap. J.T. Paterson & Co. operated out of Augusta throughout the war, supplying multiple Southern states when Northern suppliers were no longer an option.
These small-denomination state issues circulated hard and wore out fast. Survivors in any decent condition are less common than the catalogue numbers suggest.
