CC-49. Continental Currency. November 2, 1776. $4. PMG Gem Uncirculated 65 EPQ.
No. 3826. Signed by J. Walker and H. Johnson. Printed in Philadelphia by Hall and Sellers, 1776. Boar charging spear emblem with "AUT MORE AUT VITA DECORA" (Either death or an honorable life) above. Four full and ample margins with bold and sharp ink signatures. This particular note was last offered in January 2019, at which time it brought a winning bid of $2,640 in a PCGS 65 PPQ holder. Earlier it appeared in our August 2011 ANA sale, where it brought $2,070. In that sale, we noted: " An extremely pleasing example with excellent face margins and great centering on both sides. The paper quality is as advertised with prominent embossing visible. Printing clarity and inked signatures combine to form a beautiful combination." Vastly superior margins to the other PMG 65 EPQ which we sold in March, 2020 for $4,320. PMG Pop 2/None Finer.
From the Mid-Continent Collection.
