History: The South issued anywhere from one to two billion dollars in paper money. This number did not include the amount issued in bonds and the currency issued by the individual states, counties, cities, companies and banks. The CSA had hoped to obtain European loans and finance the war by the sale of cotton abroad. However, the Union blockade inhibited the export of cotton. Most printing of Confederate money stopped when the Confederate printing press in Charlston, SC was destroyed in Februrary 1865. However, another smaller press was set up and continued printing for a few more months. Over time, the money became worth less and less since as the South's chances of winning the war lessened, people realized a greater risk that it would become worthless. Confederate paper was worth .95 cents on the dollar in gold when first issued. By 1863, its value had dropped to 33 cents in Gold. When Gen. Lee surrendered on April 9, 1865 it was trading at 1.6 cents by Appomatox. May 1, 1865 was the last active trading in Confederate notes at 1,200.for a U.S.Gold $1.00.
