Description

Colonial Notes

VA-169. Virginia. May 3, 1779. $50. PMG Very Fine 30.

No.16688. Signed by Cooke and Craig. Bright paper and bold inks are found on this large format 1779 dated $50 note. The thin laid paper the $50 and $100 notes were printed on did not wear well making these highly susceptible to problems. Despite the tape repairs cited by the grading service this example faces up quite nicely.

From the Burlington Collection.

Estimate: $ 300 - 400
