New Jersey Colonial Note Fr#NJ-184 June 9, 1780 $1 PCGS 20 *David Brearley Signature*
The bills of the June 9, 1780 issue were printed by Hall and Sellers in red and black ink and were redeemable in Spanish milled dollars. These bills were guaranteed by the United States and could also be exchanged for Continental Currency. The paper contains mica flake and is water-marked “UNITED STATES” in 2 lines. The boarder cuts were engraved by Henry Dawkins, a former British counterfeiter. Additionally, this bill shares the same emblems as January 14, 1779 Continental Currency. This $1 example features an emblem of a weighted bowl on an acanthus plant encircled by the Latin motto “DEPRESSA RESURGIT” (Though crushed it recovers). Nice problem free example. Last but not least, this bill bears the signature of David Brearley, an American Founding Father and signer of the Constitution, adding significant value to this already rare bill.
Signers: David Brearley* (Constitution Signer), Philemon Dickinson, Joseph Borden (Guarantee Signature)
