Description | Plate image from Early Paper Money of America (5th edition). This note appeared in Ford III (Stack's May 2004, lot 684) and was there cataloged as a likely counterfeit. David Gladfelter agrees with Stack's assessment and notes the following differences between this note and the 15 shilling note of the same issue: The middle horizontal lines of the capital letters “E” in the word INDENTED are longer on the 15s bill, and on the 12s plate specimen in the 4th edition of Newman, than on the 6s note. For further information, see Gladfelter's article, “Sheep Here, Goats There: Some Distinguishing Characteristics of Genuine and Counterfeit 1724 New Jersey Bills of Credit,” The C4 Newsletter, Spring 2011. |
