Original 1861 Confederate States of America $1,000 Interest-Bearing Bond, cataloged as CR-79, issued under the Act of Congress of August 19, 1861 to finance the Confederate government during the American Civil War. This impressive bond features a portrait vignette of Dr. Samuel Preston Moore, the Confederate Surgeon General, who organized and led the Confederate Army Medical Department throughout the war. His innovations in battlefield medicine and hospital administration significantly improved survival rates despite severe shortages of supplies. Printed by B. Duncan of Columbia, South Carolina, this bond is an authentic Civil War financial document. With only 1,093 originally issued, it is among the scarcer Confederate bond varieties and is highly sought after by collectors of Confederate securities and Civil War history.
