Confederate States of America

In early 1861, 10 other states left the union. These 11 states formed a new nation that they called the Confederate States of America, also known as the Confederacy. The Confederacy made an ex-senator from Mississippi, Jefferson Davis, its president.

The first official Confederate flag only contained seven stars. These seven stars represented the seven original Confederate States. In 1863, the second Confederate flag contained thirteen stars. These stars represented the seven original States plus the six States that seceded. Two of these six were unsuccessful but were still included.

At the beginning of the US Civil War, one strength was the size of its territory the North had to conquer. The South as an example was larger than France.

Control of all military bases in its territory

During the US Civil War, the Confederate army which is the southern army, referred to the Union Army's soldiers as yankees or yanks. The Union Army (northern army) referred to the Confederate Army's soldiers as rebels, rebs or Johnny Reb.

Jefferson F. Davis was the President of the Confederate States of America. He also was a U.S. Senator and member of the U.S. House of Representatives from Mississippi. He was the U.S. Secretary of War. He served in the U.S. Army and fought in the Mexican-American War.

Yes First off your question is not stated properly; the South did secede successfully from the Union, though they were never recognized as an independent country by other European countries.

But answer to was it "right" for them to secede is the same answer you get when asking if it was "right" for people to leave Britain in search of a new land. Absolutely. The South seceded because of the oppressive government of the United States and the laws regulating state's rights to choose.

The Confederate States were forced to return to the Union when they were conquered militarily by the United States in 1865. However, their elected representatives were not allowed entrance into the US Congress until they had passed the 13th and 14th Amendments to the Constitution.

The value of a $1,000 Confederate bill from May 23, 1811, would depend on its condition and rarity, as well as the current demand among collectors. However, it's important to note that the Confederate States of America did not exist until 1861, so any bill dated 1811 would not be a Confederate bill and would likely be a different currency from that period. If you're referring to a Confederate bill from the Civil War era, such notes often have very little value today, sometimes ranging from a few dollars to a few hundred, depending on their condition and provenance.

$20 gold coins minted by the Confederacy had the name of the United States on them so it is impossible to tell which coin they minted.

No, some legitimate bills have been marked with the 16760 number in an attempt to devalue the currency.

While they did not have a completely different currency, like Dollars and Euro's, the confederate states did have slight differences on their notes, and so was worth a different amount depending on what store they were in. The different stores had different worths for the other sides currency than their own, so the Federal money was worth a different amount in the Confederate store, and vice verca.

They divided in 1712.

Carolina began as a proprietary colony, that is, one owned and operated by private individuals instead of the government. In the case of Carolina these were the eight "Lords Proprietors" who were given this massive land grant in 1663, for their assistance in restoring the monarchy after the Rule of Cromwell and the English Civil War, and their help in placing Charles II on the throne. They reciprocated by naming the capital city of their new colony Charles Town (now Charleston SC). The colony proved to be difficult to administer from England and made no money so the proprietors returned the grant to the crown and the Carolina's became Royal Colonies in 1729.

In order by date, it was:

It depends upon the condition and exactly when the coin was struck. There were only 12 original Confederate one cent coins struck. One of these was sold at auction in 2009 for over $130,000. In 1874 a few more were re-struck from the original dies. These vary in value from $10,000 to $70,000 depending on condition and metal type.

When the re-strikes were made the dies broke after the 55th copper coin was struck. In 1961 Robert Bashlow, a New York entrepreneur took the rusted and broken dies and had copies made by the transfer process. These pieces have irregular surfaces, and are quite unlike the 1874 restrikes. Several thousand of these Bashlow re-strikes were made and these vary in value from $75 - $400.

Many thousand of Confederate one cent replica coins have been manufactured and vary in value from 1 cent to a few dollars.

They are worthless as US currency. Only worth souvenir prices or what a collector will pay for them (not as much as you would think). You will see some outrageous prices on ebay but they are not selling.

Be careful buying any in mint condition. Most are counterfeit.

Civil war memorabilia is one of the most counterfeited items out there.
