Connecticut Colonial Note Fr#CT-224 March 1, 1780 20s PMG CU-64/63 *Consecutive Pair*

The March 1, 1780 Connecticut issue was payable in Spanish milled silver dollars by March 1, 1784 with 5% interest. Upon redemption these notes were hole or slash cancelled. The obverse features elaborate borders and a small state seal with a hand pointing to the left. Printed by Timothy Green II on thin, light paper The reverse has an elaborate border design. Very scarce with only 28 examples known. This gorgeous pair of notes are sequentially serial numbered, 6338 and 6339 with both examples being neat the top of the population report. I am not sure what held these back from an EPQ designation with very clean paper and impeccable ink. Unique pair worthy of any colonial collector looking for a unique addition.

*This listing includes both notes
