North Carolina Colonial Note Fr#NC-72b March 9, 1754 8d Boar PMG 4 *9 Known*
The notes of the March 9, 1754 North Carolina issue had a minimalistic design and various seals. This early 8 Pence note features a boar vignette. Much scarcer than higher denominations in the series. Although low grade, of the 20,000 originally printed only 9 are known to survive today. These low denominations experienced a ton of handling and colonists went to great lengths to repair and extend the life of these notes. Gorgeous vignette and full date remains.
