Aisquith, not a listed signer of this issue as his appointment date to service was December 27, 1776 according to Newman, page 77 listings. ''Fugio'' motifs. Crisp Uncirculated, trimmed in slightly along the bottom edge. A sharp note and an interesting signature anomaly.

It would seem obvious that the late signature is due to delays in getting the entire emission out prior to the next resolution's notes entering commerce.
