 Colony of New York. July 21, 1746. Ten Pounds. No.8069. Signed by A.(braham) Lynsen, C.(ornelius) V.(an) Horne, and Paul Richard. Uniface, standard size with design changes, printed in black by James Parker (printer of New Jersey money in Woodbridge). The New York Arms shift to the right side, top and side serpent columnar border cuts and the denomination within the seal frame. Anti-raising device, two pound weights with ''V''. Only 1,861 authorized for printing and very rare. Very Fine, but the note has a center vertical split, paper taped neatly from the back. The note is cut close, but this is typical. Faint hints of paper mounts on the back corner tips. The right half shows a few pinholes, but this is a rare note and the eye appeal despite the split is considerable.
