GA, 18--. $4 Uncut Sheet at front. Sheet of 5/10/25/50/75 at back. Printed in this way on a previously cancelled printing job. Remainders were often used by printers to fulfill currency orders due to the shortages of paper in the south caused by the Civil War. Of course, the odd denomination of $4 bills makes this sheet especially interesting. Augusta is the capital of the U.S. state of Maine and the county seat of Kennebec County. The city's population was 18,899 at the 2020 census, making it the tenth-most populous city in Maine, and third-least populous state capital in the United States after Montpelier, Vermont, and Pierre, South Dakota. Located on the Kennebec River at the head of tide, it is the principal city in the Augusta-Waterville Micropolitan Statistical Area and home to the University of Maine at Augusta. The area was first explored by the English of the short-lived Popham Colony in September 1607. 21 years later, English settlers from the Plymouth Colony settled in the area in 1628 as part of a trading post on the Kennebec River. The settlement was known by its Native American name Cushnoc (or Coussinoc or Koussinoc), meaning "head of the tide." Item ordered may not be exact piece shown. All original and authentic.
