NC-174. North Carolina. August 8, 1778. $2. PMG About Uncirculated 53. Remainder.
NC-174. North Carolina. August 8, 1778. $2. PMG About Uncirculated 53. Remainder.
No. 11418. Signed by R. White. Motto Virtuous Councils the Cement of States. Printed on thinner dark coarse paper. Typeset face with ornamental borders. Back imprint "Printed by James Davis, 1778." This was the only motto used on these $2 notes. A little close on the right but otherwise superbly margined. PMG calls this note a Remainder, a fact that shows how the nuances of early American paper money continue to elude them to this day. The $4 and higher denominations have two signatures. The $2 and lower denominations only have a single signature. The detail and light degree of circulation is rarely seen on notes from this scarcer denomination. From our Ford XV sale in 2006 at over $500. In today's rapidly advancing market this should easily be worth double that figure.
Estimate: $1,000 - $1,500.
