Bond Coupons  -  While reading Correspondence of Confederate Treasury I discovered that Bond Cupons were used as currency.  These cupons and specie [coin] were the ONLY monies acceptable for Import Duties.  Therefore, cupons are a legitimate example of Confederate "currency".  Treasury Notes are what we collect.  Anything under $5 were considered or called Change Notes.  Fractional state notes [only 50ct Confederate] were used in place of specie or coin in most cases; but, they, along with Treasury notes were NOT acceptable to pay for import duties.  As stated above, ONLY specie [foreign or domestic] and Bond Cupons!
