The April 10, 1774 Maryland issue was printed on thin paper with mica flakes throughout. An impressive large nature print and “Tis Death to Counterfeit” can be seen on the reverse. This note was printed by Anne Catherine Green (only woman credited with printing colonial currency) and Frederick Green. “Printed by A.C. and F. GREEN” can be seen along the bottom edge of the reverse nature print. Secret marks are present in this issue as an anti-counterfeiting measure. Absolutely gorgeous AU+ uncut pair. Incredibly scarce note to find as a pair. Light paper and bold ink with exceptional eye appeal.
Signers: William Eddis, John Clapham
