State of Maryland. August 8, 1781. Four Pence Ticket. Unnumbered. Signed by B.[enjamin] Harwood. Uniface....State of Maryland. August 8, 1781. Four Pence Ticket. Unnumbered. Signed by B.[enjamin] Harwood. Uniface. Printed by Frederick Green (without an imprint) in red. Ornate exterior frame with floral ornaments encloses alternating pattern interior frame of circles enclosing crosses and triangles. In the center, the textual obligation. Another rare series for any note. There were four small denominations issued with 60,000 printed from each. However, they received harsh circulation and few are known. Unpriced in Newman. Some surface soiling around the perimeter, but Very Fine to Extremely Fine. Very crisp still and well margined. An antique mounting strip on the back top edge. Likely, among the finest grade notes known. Though a typeset issue, a note with much character.
