Treasury of Virginia. October 16, 1780 Act. One Hundred Dollars or 30 Pounds. No.1507. Signed by J.M. Simmons, Lyne, and Hopkins. Printed on very thin paper. Denomination printed on back, standard size approximately 100mm by 80mm. Typeset, ornamental border cuts. Face plate mark 'e.o'. There were only six denominations printed on this Act date and plate type. These notes are differentiated from the ''... Clothing the Army'' notes by their differing face text and printed back text denominations.
A lovely example of this frail paper issue. Very Fine to Extremely Fine. The look of new, but there are folds and a heavy, wide corner fold. Broad margined and handsome. Excellent type note on the Act and the typeset genre on Virginia.
Ex F.C.C. Boyd Estate.
