Continental Currency November 2, 1776 $2 Fr. CC-47. PCGS Gem New 65PPQ. This is another truly striking example, and a perfect candidate for a high quality type set. The margins are complete and boldly printed. The top left edge is wider and even shows a tiny portion of the note that was above on the sheet. The nature print back printing is very detailed. It is difficult to find a Continental note with fresh originality like this, unless it comes from a distinguished collection like Eric P. Newman's. This is the finest graded at PCGS, with no other New notes certified. At PMG there is one 65 EPQ note to report. This stunner will start or further a significant Continental currency collection. Ex: Eric P. Newman Numismatic Education Society.
