Pennsylvania March 1, 1769 8 Shillings Fr. PA-130. PCGS Fine 12 Apparent. A scarce series of notes, and difficult to find in higher grades. The issue required withdrawal due to extensive and well-made counterfeits. This is the lowest denomination and only 1,000 notes were authorized. Noted with "Small Edge Splits; Minor Mounting Remnants on Back." This example is in better than average condition for an infrequently encountered note. Ex: Eric P. Newman Numismatic Education Society Realized $552.25. Newman VII (Heritage Auctions, 10/2015), lot 18986. Description courtesy of Heritage Auctions.
Pennsylvania June 18, 1764 20 Shillings Fr. PA-126. PCGS Very Fine 35 Apparent. The highest denomination from the Franklin and Hall printed June 18, 1764 issue. From the face, this plate A note appears superior to Very Fine. It is bright and well margined. Old mounts on the back corners yield the "Small Paper Pulls on Back Corners" notation from grading. The back imprint line is unaffected and strong. This is one the finest known notes of the series and type. Ex: Eric P. Newman Numismatic Education Society Realized $881.25. Newman VII (Heritage Auctions, 10/2015), lot 18985. Description courtesy of Heritage Auctions.
