Pennsylvania May 1, 1760 5 Pounds Fr. PA-114. PCGS Very Fine 20 Apparent. A second superior-grade 5 pounds from this B. Franklin and D. Hall-imprinted series. Plate A. The signatures of Joseph Saunders and Henry Harrison are strong while that of Joseph Morris is faint yet discernable. The back shows a three-leaf nature print that shows fine details. This is quite choice and the noted "Pinholes" from PCGS are perhaps a little harsh for an example exhibiting vibrant red color details and superior paper for the series and type. The margins are average for most notes observed of this type. Ex: Eric P. Newman Numismatic Education Society.
From Newman X (Heritage Auctions, November 2018), lot 20033, realized $1320. |
