The May 9, 1776 Continental issue shared the same style as November 29, 1775 and was printed just months before the signing of the Declaration of Independence. Printed by Hall and Sellers on course paper containing mica flake and blue threads. This $7 note features an emblem of a severe storm at sea. This emblem is encircled by the Latin motto “SERENABIT” (It will be calm). The reverse features nature print of buttercup leaf and ornate borders. Fantastic example for the grade, with high eye appeal and strong signatures. Well deserving of the Evergreen sticker from GCC fortifying the quality of this note for the grade.
Signers: Andrew Tybout, Josiah Hewes
