This scarce and early New York issue was printed by William Weyman with a blank back. The New York Arms can be seen on the front with “Tis Death to counterfeit this Bill" below. Previous issues stated “Its Death to counterfeit this Bill”, this issue replaced “Its” with “Tis”. Solid VF example with nice legibility on this issue usually seen tattered. Incredibly scarce with only6 originally printed and 16 known to survive today.
