North Carolina began issuing its own fractional currency in 1861 when the collapse of small-change circulation — silver having been hoarded almost immediately after secession — left the state with a practical problem that Confederate Treasury notes couldn't solve at the retail level. J.T. Paterson & Co. of Augusta was one of several Southern printers pressed into service as the war severed access to established engravers in New York and Philadelphia.
Paterson's work on this series is competent but noticeably cruder than the pre-war bank note printing North Carolina's citizens would have known. The state redeemed these notes in Confederate currency, not specie — a distinction that mattered considerably by late 1862.
