Keatinge & Ball relocated from Richmond to Columbia, South Carolina in 1862 after Union pressure on the Confederate capital made continued operations there untenable. The firm became the primary printer of late-war Confederate currency, and the P-65 series was among the last large issues before Sherman's army burned Columbia in February 1865 — destroying the press, the plates, and much of the remaining stock in a single night.
This is a replica. Genuine P-65 notes are common enough that reproductions serve no authentication purpose; they exist purely for the collector education market.
