Colony of New York. March 25, 1755. Two Pounds. No.6410(?). Signed by Jno. Livingston, I.(saac) DePeyster and, perhaps Oliver DeLancey [very faint]. Printed on much thicker, coarse paper. Uniface with dark back, printed in black by James Parker. New York Arms to the right side, serpent columns and denomination inside seal. Anti-raising device of two pound weights. Only 2,093 notes authorized of this denomination. Difficult to assign a grade, the coarse back peeled off and missing. The thin part of the face note left is Good, vertically split and rejoined. Some pinholes, a taped split and soiling. Despite the flaws, this is a rare note.
