- Cherokee Co., AL - Cornwall Iron Works Company Payable at Agency Planters Bank of Savannah, Rome, Georgia $3 Aug. 1, 1862 Rosene-UNL. PCGS Fine 15 Apparent. This is an extreme rarity and a historic $3 issue from a foundry that produced war materials for the Confederacy. This is a two-state issuer and has been of great interest to collectors from both states, avidly sought after when notes from here have rarely crossed the auction block. Printed on white paper in brown with slightly deeper shade denomination protectors. At the top is a train heading east. At the far left is standing Justice. Bold signature of James Noble as treasurer. An excellent history was supplied from our 2015 FUN Alan Dorris Collection sale: "Cherokee County is located in far northeastern Alabama very near Rome, Georgia. This company was commissioned by the Confederate government to produce pig iron for the Confederate war effort, on the site of a foundry operated by James Noble, Sr., and his five sons since 1855. Construction involved an estimated 1,000 Confederate soldiers and slaves from nearby plantations. The furnace went into production in either late 1862 or early 1863. Charcoal was produced on nearby farms and plantations to fire the furnace, and water power from the Chattooga River was used to power the blast. The pig iron ingots manufactured at the furnace were sent to the Noble Brothers' foundry in Rome for the manufacture of war materials. The furnace was knocked out of production for the remainder of the war by Union troops in 1864. Although payable at the Rome agency of the Planters Bank of Savannah, these notes are clearly an Alabama issue, as the Cornwall Foundry was located near Cedar Bluff, Alabama. The ruins of the foundry are still visible today and the place is on the list of National Historic Sites." We have handled four other notes from the issuer, but this is the first $3 note. Fully issued and appealing. Noted are "Repairs; Pieces Replaced; Design Redrawn," that are details not readily noticed from the attractive face. Historic Southern notes like this never go out of vogue with today's sophisticated collectors. Ex: Eric P. Newman Numismatic Education Society, Heritage Auctions Internet Sale (5/2016).
