Continental Currency Fr#CC-21 February 17, 1776 $1/2 PMG 25 *Fugio Note*
The fractional denominations of the February 17, 1776 Continental issue are often referred to as Fugio notes. The sundial rebus can be seen on the front and the linked colonies on the reverse, both of these devices were designed by Benjamin Franklin and prepared by Elisha Gallaudet. Nice midgrade example with only minor staining at the top left that is not distracting.
