Province of Pennsylvania. May 20, 1758. Twenty Shillings. No.24296. Plate B. Signed by Cha.(rles) Thomson, Jos.(eph) Stretch, and Dan.(iel) Williams. Printed on thick paper, standard size and designs. The back is not inverted like the prior two series. Printed face and back, in black, by B.(enjamin) Franklin and David Hall, their imprint on the back. A second example, this time from plate 'B'. A nice type note, only honest wear and no severe problems. Fine or better, horizontal fold with no breaks. The corners are rounded, but the margins are decent. The back has moderate to heavy soiling. One pinhole in the text. However, not torn and ripped apart as most survivors of this issue are.
