ANSWER:

During the 1820's the government of the United States printed currency, as it does today. It was good, and was accepted in every state.

But, with the American Civil War, the United State continued to print currency, but, the Confederate States of America decided to print their own currency. This being the fact, that they were no longer part of the Union.

However, over a period of time, the Confederate currency would not be worth the paper it was printed on, and United States currency would be hard to come by in the South.
