Act of Assembly passed May 24, MDCCLX [1760]. Ten Shillings ('Crowns Two'...") Current Money of Virginia. Act of Assembly passed May 24, MDCCLX [1760]. Ten Shillings ('Crowns Two' or 120 Pence). No.9861. A Contemporary Counterfeit from a fairly ''crude'' plate, differing from the genuine note in the previous lot. ''Signed'' by Ben.(jamin) Waller and Phil.(ip) Johnson. Printed on thicker laid paper. 87mm by 57mm. Uniface, printed in black with ornamental cuts at the sides and denomination protectors at the top and bottom. The Arms and motto EN DAT VIRGINIA QUARTAM (Behold Virginia contributes one quarter of the Arms) at the upper left. A rare note, even as a counterfeit. Quite bright, vivid and choice. Very Fine or better. Trimmed somewhat around three sides. There is still an ample border cut showing. Some very minor splits and a piece of old collector mounting strip on a back corner.
