Lot 1722		T-41 1862 $100. Rare, Unlisted Issuer. PCGS Very Fine 30.

Arnow in two different Florida units- the 7th Regiment of Florida Infantry along with the 2nd Regiment of Florida Cavalry. Further reserach is needed in order to determine whether the same person served in both units or whether there happened to be two George J. Arnows.
