1775 Massachusetts Bay Colony 5 Pounds 4 Shillings Bond

Undated Steamer J.A. Cotten 25 Cents Note

And lastly is the enigmatic Undated Steamer J.A. Cotten 25 Cents Note, worthy of exhaustive research because of its possible connection to the Confederate steamer J.A. Cotton. Accounts show the partially ironclad steamer being sunk by Union forces in 1863 at Bayou Teche. If confirmed as a Confederate navy-related scrip issue, this note’s historical importance cannot be overstated.
