Georgia. June 8, 1777. Five Dollars in Continental Currency. No.79. Blue seal. Rattlesnake. NEMO ME IMPUNE LACESSET. The ''in'' of the text in red. Signed by Wood, Langworthy, Wylly, Wade and O'Bryen. Printed on laid paper. Extremely Fine or perhaps a little finer. The paper is superb, with only a moderate, borderline crease, a faint vertical fold and some corner handling. Bright paper with a small tone spot at the top edge. The seal color and rattlesnake details are sharp. The margins are mostly close and the top left center is bowed in slightly. Overall, a very sharp note and a superb seal type with patriotic fervor spilling forth.
