Note on the Note: When North Carolina succeeded from the Union in 1861, the State took full advantage of its new found power of issuing money in the form of notes. There was a shortage of quality paper for these notes within the state so recycling old remainder sheets was employeed. The Bank of the State was an excellent source as its charter had recently expired and was rechartered under the name Bank of North Carolina. Back of State of North Carolina $1 note printed on P-1190A remainder sheet
Front of State of North Carolina $1 note printed on P-1190A remainder sheet
