The front of this September 26, 1778 $8 Continental note features an emblem depicting a harp with 13 strings of different sizes, representing the 13 colonies. The emblem is encircled by the latin motto “MAJORA MINORIBUS CONSONANT” (The large colonies and the small colonies are in harmony). The reverse has nature print of 3 sage leaves. Absolutely gorgeous example with bold ink, strong signatures, and light crisp paper. PCGS notes mounting remnants on the back but I am doubtful this would be noted with a regrade. This note was signed by Joseph Gardner, a member of the Continental Congress. Additionally, this note was a part of the revered John J. Ford Collection.

Signers: Joseph Gardner, Robert Mullan
