Colony of Delaware June 1, 1759 20 Shillings Fr. DE-68. PCGS Very Fine 25 Apparent. A second June 1, 1759, 20 shillings and a lovely example in well above-average condition. The imprint of B. FRANKLIN and D. HALL is clear and strong on the back of this very pleasing and boldly printed note. Although PCGS notes "Splits and Repairs" and a "Paper Pull in LL Corner," this example shows strong details, particularly upon the lion. The signatures of Hall, Armstrong, and Barns are clear. A sharp piece, and a perfect fit into any Thirteen Colony set or specialized collection. Ex: Eric P. Newman Numismatic Education Society.
