Interesting piece of history!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eObsolete bank notes are also called \"broken bank notes.\" In the days prior to the Federal Reserve, any bank could produce currency for use by the clients and members of the community. Unfortunately, not many safeguards were taken to ensure that banks stood behind the currency they were producing and circulating. Banks, more often than not, failed and their currency was rendered worthless. As a result, most bank notes of the period did not trade at their full retail value. Oftentimes notes were worth 50 cents on the dollar because the public expected the banks to fail.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThanks for stopping by!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e1863 State of Georgia 25 Cents Milledgeville Issue Obsolete Note - Confederate Currency - 1863 Georgia Twenty-Five Cents Fractional Note\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Treasure Hunter Co","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53442881126697,"sku":"OC-GA-1863-25C-VF","price":42.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0793\/1540\/3049\/files\/DSC_0044_6126f42c-23d5-49fe-bb10-703ad5dddb8a.jpg?v=1787349026","url":"https:\/\/treasurehunterco.com\/ar\/products\/1862-the-state-of-georgia-milledgeville-5-dollar-obsolete-note-uncirculated-grade-confederate-currency-1862-georgia-five-dollar-note-copy","provider":"Treasure Hunter Co","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
