 Colony of New Hampshire. November 3, 1775. Forty Shillings. No.2556. Payable on December 20, 1782. Signed by Hobart and Gilman. Printed on thinner laid paper. 126mm by 72mm. Uniface, standard typeset design in different size. Indent at left with pattern borders, payable due date in the obligation text. A second example of this due date. The paper type is clearly different and the ornaments, though properly positioned, lack some definition. This plate perhaps can be classified as a Contemporary Counterfeit one and further examples studied in the future can be compared with this high grade note. About Uncirculated and Choice. A light vertical fold. Exceptionally clean paper surfaces.
Ex Harmer Rooke via F.S. Werner, August 7, 1974.
