Pennsylvania Colonial Note Fr#PA-209 April 10, 1777 3d PCGS 63 PPQ *Ex. Ford*
The bills of the April 10, 1777 Pennsylvania issue were passed for the purpose of supporting the army. This note was printed by John Dunlap on paper containing mica flake. This Pence note is small in size and printed in black ink. The Penn Arms are present on the front with a ship and farming motifs. “To Counterfeit is DEATH” can be clearly read across the top of the simple but elegant reverse. Exceptional example with bold ink and crisp light paper. This example also has a very neat watermark made up of multiple “PENNSYLVANIA” watermarks. Previously a part of the iconic Ford Collection. Well deserving of the PPQ designation from PCGS.
