The 1776 Sterling Georgia issue was represented by 8 different denominations with varying sizes. This 10 Shilling note was the second largest denomination and was printed with red and black ink where smaller denominations were smaller in size and only printed in black ink. This bill features a typeset design with various detailed ornamental borders. The (W) variety of this note is characterized by the 2 cross bars on the upright cross on each side of the denomination. Absolutely gorgeous example with strong eye appeal for the grade. Lovely note with crisp light paper, strong ink and signatures. Scarce piece with only 13 examples known to survive.
Signers: James Habersham, Lachlan McGillivray, Richard Wylly, William O’Bryen, Nehemiah Wade
