This bill from the July 2, 1780 Rhode Island issue was interest bearing and payable in Spanish milled dollars. Printed by Hall and Sellers featuring a black typeface design on the front and red & black ink on the back with emblems similar to Continental Currency. Printed on “CONFEDERATION” watermarked paper. Striking crisp choice uncirculated note with light paper, bold ink, and blazing signatures. Well deserving of the elusive PPQ designation from PCGS as well as the evergreen sticker from GCC affirming the quality of this example. Additionally, this note was a part of the famous John Ford Collection.
