 State of North Carolina. May 10, 1780 Act. Twenty Five Dollars. Vim. Vi. repellamus. No.1016. Signed by Coore and Caron. Printed on thin laid paper. Typeset face with ornamental borders. Simple pattern back, similar to 1778 notes, with imprint 'Printed by James Davis, 1780'. A second example of this last $25 motto type on thin paper. Very Fine to Extremely Fine. Bold and crisp, but a long diagonal fold at the lower right and heavy handling on the corners. The upper right corner is a little ragged in the wide margin with a precarious piece ready to fall off. Very subtle toning on the edges, slightly deeper at the right. An attractive and well above average example of this note.
Ex F.C.C. Boyd Estate.
