Opmerkingen

Macon, Georgia functioned as a significant Confederate supply and financial hub after the fall of Nashville and the Union advance through Tennessee — by 1863, local institutions like Macon Savings Bank were issuing fractional scrip to address the near-total disappearance of metallic coin from daily commerce. Federal coins vanished from circulation almost immediately after secession, hoarded or melted, leaving a vacuum that municipal banks, merchants, and even railroads rushed to fill with paper fractions.

Georgia-issued fractional notes from this period were printed locally under difficult conditions, and typographic inconsistencies between surviving examples of this series suggest small press runs, possibly from more than one setting of type.
