Signed by Clarke and Congdon. This uniface series is very scarce and priced in Newman in ''Good'' and ''Very Good'' only.

September 5, 1776. $30 CU $2,900.00 No.249. Signed by Congdon, [faint], and Dexter. From the same tough series as the last, but an unpriced type in Newman.

A second note from this very rare and important Act. This is a wonder note as it is boldly printed and impressed. There is a very faint and short corner fold bordering on a bend. Choice About Uncirculated is unfair in a way, but all of that is academic as this is not only high on the Condition Census...  more 2181 State of Rhode Island. February 24 [written], 1777. $10 NEW $2,900.00 No.864. Signed by Jos. Clarke. Issued to John Smith, with countersignature on the verso. Again, outstanding in quality. From the face the look of a new note. There is a heavy bend, bordering on a fold that runs off the diagonal at the left center. With the rarity and eye appeal, worth the price of the highest grade.
