Descripción:: State of Maryland May 10, 1781 1 Shilling 6 Pence Fr. MD-128. PCGS Very Fine 30 Apparent. This is a very striking series of notes printed by Frederick Green with red face border cuts and a red Maryland Arms on the back. The notes were payable in specie per the obligation at a rate of 7 Shillings 6 Pence per dollar (making this in effect a $1/5 note). The colors and overall style make this popular with collectors. A bold example for the grade, with the arms on the back quite vibrant. The margins for the type are average. Apparent and noted with "Small Edge Splits and Repairs; Minor Stains; Small Mounting Remnants on Back." Some of the issues mentioned are minor and the eye-appeal is still considerable. The Boyd collection note had severe face stains on a "Fine" note and sold for $2,990 as Lot 8181 in Ford Part XV. An excellent type note candidate with the strong colors and excellent printing. Ex: Eric P. Newman Numismatic Education Society. Realized $3,760.00. Newman VI (Heritage Auctions, 4/2015), lot 19479. Description courtesy of Heritage Auctions.

Descripción:

State of Maryland May 10, 1781 5 Shillings Fr. MD-130. PCGS Extremely Fine 40. A bold example from this late date and among the finest known from the entire issue. This superb 5 shillings is from a very striking series of notes printed by Frederick Green with red face border cuts and red Maryland arms on the back. Eight denominations were authorized, but few collectors have ever achieved a complete set. The notes were payable in specie per the obligation at a rate of 7 shillings 6 pence per dollar (making this in effect a $2/3 note). The vibrant colors and overall style make this popular with collectors. Few notes from the series observed exceed this extraordinary piece. It may only be surpassed by the one shilling note from the Boyd collection (Ford Part X: Lot 4626). Illustrated on page 46 of the color plates in the fifth edition of Newman's reference, The Early Paper Money of America. The face margins are complete. Rich red face border cuts are marvelous and the back coat of arms is vivid within the black bordering frame. A stunning note in all regards. Ex: Eric P. Newman Numismatic Education Society

From Newman VIII (Heritage Auctions, 11/2017), lot 28044, realized $9600. Image and description courtesy of Heritage Auctions, https://ha.com.

Descripción:: State of Maryland May 10, 1781 1 Shilling Fr. MD-127. PCGS About New 50 Apparent. This is a very distinctive series of notes printed by Frederick Green with red face border cuts and deep red Maryland Arms on the back. The notes were payable in specie per the obligation at a rate of 7 Shillings 6 Pence per dollar. The colors and overall style make this series popular with collectors. As the lowest denomination, a greater rarity in the series and worthy of a premium evaluation. The only superior example we have encountered is the Boyd note auctioned in the May 2005 Ford X sale, graded Choice About Uncirculated, for $6,325. This is a bold example; the arms on the back are quite vibrant. The margins for the type are usually slightly inward and wavy as seen here. The Apparent designation is for only: "Small Edge Nick at Left; Edge Tear at Top Right" Trivial considerations since, with strong colors and excellent printing, this is an excellent candidate for any top-flight collection. Ex: Eric P. Newman Numismatic Education Society Realized $3525.00. Newman VII (Heritage Auctions, 10/2015), lot 18079. Description courtesy of Heritage Auctions.
