Description: Due to widespread hoarding of coins during the Civil War era, Congress authorized the printing of fractional currency notes (with values less than a dollar) from 1862-1876. When Congress in 1875-76 authorized redemption of this fractional currency in silver coins, most of these notes were redeemed. The 10¢ note is from the 1874-1876 Fifth Issue of fractional currency. The face of the note bears a portrait of William M. Meredith who served as the United States Secretary of the Treasury, during President Zachary Taylor's Administration. This historic 25¢ note is from the 1874-1876 Fifth Issue of fractional currency. The face of the note bears a portrait of Robert J. Walker, secretary of the treasury during 1845-1849, and features a Treasury Seal with a short, thick key. Add this precious Civil War – era note to your own collection.
