The January 14, 1779 issue was passed to act as a redemption for notes of the May 20, 1777 and April 11, 1778 issues due to extensive British counterfeiting. This note is water marked “UNITED STATES” in 2 lines and new boarder cuts for this issue say “UNITED STATES OF NORTH AMERICA”. This striking uncut strip features the 4 lowest denominations of the issue with the $1, $2, $3, $4. Printed by Hall and Sellers in beautiful red and black ink with various mottos. Incredibly rare piece, with uncut Continentals being very difficult to find. A highlight piece for any colonial collection.
Signers: Jacob Graff, Daniel Wister
