The Confederate States of America, or the Confederacy (1861-65). Dixieland (originally because of the 10-cent coin marked 'DIX' when Louisiana was French). Also the Rebel States. Sometimes 'Swannee', taken generically.
The Confederate States of America never struck a $5 dollar coin, only half dollars (4)& one cent (15) coins.
About $120,000. Only 15 were made!
The short-lived Confederate States of America only issued two coins, the one cent and the half dollar. A genuine Confederate half dollar is so rare that it does not have a listed value. A number of restrikes were made decades later which run from a few thousand to tens of thousands of dollars in value depending on their wear.
