Pennsylvania Currency
Vibrant April 10, 1777 Red & Black Printed Four Pounds
Pennsylvania, April 10, 1777, Four Pounds, Red & Black Print, PMG graded Extremely Fine-40.
Fr. PA-224b. An attractive colorful note that has vivid red and black printed text and designs, all beautifully outlined by its decorative outer black borders. Its holder states minor repairs (none being seen under close scrutiny by this cataloger, and likely erroneously confused with its special "PENSYL / VANIA" central watermark as made in its fresh clean period paper). This 4 note is the highest denomination on this series. It has a sharply printed fresh appearance that is nearly the equal of the (2008) 5th Edition Newman plate illustration bearing the same clear and strong signatures of James Davison and James Cannon, written in red and brown ink. The paper is fresh and crisp, and with no folds seen, this note appears much too conservatively graded by PCGS.
