 Colony of the Massachusetts Bay. July 8, 1775. Nine Shillings. No.4608, but altered from a crossed out No.5093. Signed by Hall and Gardner. Revere Copper Plate Note. Printed on laid paper. 174mm by 95mm. Only 667 authorized. An interesting note as the serial number was changed officially. An extraordinary note for the issue date. Very Fine to Extremely Fine, but many will consider close to the latter. Complete with a very broad bottom margin. There are several folds, but no serious splitting that is endemic to these Revere Copper Plate notes of both Resolves. A few petty nicks, some minor edge aging and two spots at the lower left. Boyd's pencil code, ''nryx'', on the back. A superb example for the next important collection it enters.
Ex F.C.C. Boyd Estate.
