Old Confederate Bonds Worth $440 After Long Span

Old bonds issued by the Confederacy during the Civil War rose to $440 nearly eight decades after the government ceased to exist. The bonds, along with Czarist Russian bonds, funded Dutch resistance during Nazi occupation to aid striking railway workers and families of executed underground members. Receipts for loans to the government were avoided to prevent exposing subscribers to Nazi danger, so numbered bonds were issued instead. Germans often found these receipts but recorded them as worthless securities.
