Confederate Bond.

During the Civil War, the Confederate States of America needed to raise cash to finance the war. In addition to raising taxes and printing money, the Confederate States also borrowed money by issuing war bonds.

Obviously, they lost and the bonds are worth money only as collectibles!

Lots of pictures of Civil War Bonds (1861 - 1865): Link
