Colony of the Massachusetts Bay. July 8, 1775. Ten Shillings. No.4572. Signed by Fuller and Gardner. Revere Copper Plate Note. Printed on laid paper. 174mm by 79mm. Only 667 authorized. Another superb example and high on a Condition Census if one were compiled. About Extremely Fine. Folded into eighths, but there is no splitting on these folds, as they are modest. The indent is bowed in to the second 'p' in 'paper'. The ''Gardner'' has been lightly pen canceled. There are few pinholes. A small paper attachment at back left corner where this was perhaps attached to a legal document at one time. Period pen endorsed on the verso. A beauty!
Ex Coin Galleries, Privately, December 28, 1971.
