Colonial Notes
Connecticut June 7, 1776 10s PMG Extremely Fine 40. The Connecticut seal displays great detail on this lovely example that exhibits bold embossing. This lightly handled note has been cut cancelled, but the cut is not readily apparent. This scarce denomination is unpriced in the Newman reference in any grade.
Georgia 1776 1s/6d PCGS Apparent Very Fine 20. This is border variety ( r ) with the odd ornament near the center of the left side of the top border. The note has four bold signatures, far better than normal margins and no problems save for some minor internal splitting of the center fold, which has earned this note its apparent grade.
Georgia 1776 $1/4 PCGS Very Fine 35. Well-signed and numbered, this is a solid, problem-free and very well-margined note. There are only two denominations for this 1776 Fractional Dollar issue. This quarter-dollar note is the lower of those two.
New York April 20, 1756 £10 PMG Fine 12 Net. Plate letter D is observed on this example. A mere 2200 of these £10 notes were printed by James Parker. A tear, extending from the center of the note to the bottom margin, was cited by PMG as the reason for the net grade. The tear has been partially repaired.
New York March 5, 1776 $5 PMG About Uncirculated 50 Net. This New York issue is popular, due at least in part to the appealing vignettes on the backs. The $5 features a large candelabrum with the motto UNO EODEMQUE IGNI (with one and the same flame). A mere 2350 of these notes were printed. Stain repairs were mentioned by PMG as the reason for the net grade, however it is difficult to see any such repairs through the holder.
North Carolina March 9, 1754 20s PMG Very Good 8 Net. The crown vignette is sharp on this example. Only 6000 of these notes were printed. PMG cited reconstruction as the reason for the net grade. Several areas of repairs are noticed.
North Carolina April 23, 1761 20s PCGS Apparent Fine 15. This well-signed note has several endorsements on the back. The apparent grade was due to splits that were tape repaired and a restoration of the right edge.
North Carolina December, 1768 £3 PCGS Apparent Fine 12. Well-margined and well-signed, this note is numbered 330. A repaired central split and edge damage were mentioned as the reasons for the apparent grade.
North Carolina December, 1771 2s/6d PCGS Apparent Very Fine 20. Three wide margins are noticed on this well-signed piece with the duck vignette. Repaired splits were listed as the reason for the apparent grade by PCGS.
North Carolina April 2, 1776 $1 Scroll PCGS Apparent Very Fine 35. This April 2, 1776 issue is one of the most fascinating in all of Colonial Currency. It's composed of denominations running from $1/16 to $20, with as many as eight different vignettes for several of the denominations. There are 56 different varieties for this issue. There are two varieties of $1 Scroll notes. This well-printed, attractive example numbered 7887 is the variety with the denomination printed in white. Multiple tape repairs, as mentioned by PCGS, are seen on the back of this note.
North Carolina August 8, 1778 $1/8 PCGS About New 53. The lowest denomination from this series bears one of the more interesting mottoes, "Union of Hearts the Strength of Interests." The note is free of problems and has good eye appeal. It's valued at $750 in EF, which is the highest grade column in the new Newman for this issue.
North Carolina August 8, 1778 $1/4 PCGS Extremely Fine 45PPQ. All of the denominations from this issue include patriotic mottoes in English. The motto on this Quarter Dollar note is the single word, "Independence." Although printed in far higher quantities than the dollar amounts, these Fractional pieces are seen with less frequency.
Pennsylvania October 1, 1773 10s Extremely Fine. Well printed and well signed with numerous mica flakes visible, this red and black ten shillings piece has appeal. The serial number and signatures of all three signers remain dark. The signers were John Field, Abraham Usher, and Charles Meredith. Minor mounting damage is observed.
Pennsylvania March 16, 1785 9d PCGS Very Fine 30. Peter Baynton was the sole signer of this appealing example. This is a flawless, lightly circulated example from this final Pennsylvania issue. The number of notes printed was large, however the survival rate was quite small and these notes are not frequently encountered.
Pennsylvania March 16, 1785 1s/6d PMG Very Fine 20. Decent margins are observed on this eighteen pence note. This is a scarcer issue, and thus quite desirable. Although one of the signatures has faded on this example, William Turnbull's remains dark. The latest edition of the Newman reference lists the values for all of the notes of this issue at the same level, with $1250 being the price for VF examples.
Pennsylvania March 16, 1785 20s PMG Very Fine 25. Another note from this scarce issue, the denomination of this piece is twenty shillings. Andrew Pettit, John Taylor, and John Duffield were the signers of this attractive example. Francis Bailey printed these notes. As with the previous example, this denomination is listed at $1250 in VF.
Rhode Island May 22, 1777 $1/8 PCGS Apparent Very Fine 25. These notes were issued in an attempt to relieve the shortage of small change. John I. Clark's signature remains bold on this lovely example. The apparent grade is due to repaired edge tears and corner restoration at upper right and upper left per PCGS. The repairs were nicely performed and this example retains good eye appeal.
Virginia May 3, 1779 $100 PMG Choice Fine 15 Net. The larger sized notes were printed on soft paper which is extremely prone to damage. Split and margin repairs performed on the back of the note resulted in the net grade from PMG. This note still retains plenty of appeal however. H. Randolph, H. Cocke, and A. Craig were the signers of this piece.
Virginia March 1, 1781 $500 PMG About Uncirculated 50 Net. With bold printing, great paper color, and nice margins, this $500 has wonderful eye appeal. J. Rose, W. Martin, and A. Craig signed this attractive note. This issue was printed by Dixon and Nicholson and also by Dunlap and Hayes. Purposeful misspellings as well as omission of letters were techniques used for this issue in an attempt to thwart counterfeiters. "FIVE" is spelled as "OIVE" and question marks appear after each of the letters in "DOLLARS." This is a great high denomination note to add to a Colonial collection. An endorsement is viewed on the back. Tear repairs were cited as the reason for the net grade by PMG. The repairs were nicely performed.

Obsoletes By State
Monroe, LA- Vicksburg, Shreveport and Texas Railroad Company $2 Jan. 13, 1862
The $2 denomination is seen less frequently. The actual tracks for this railroad only ran from Vicksburg to Monroe. However, it did join with the Southern and Alabama & Mississippi Railroads to provide a long east-west Deep South link from Selma, Alabama to Monroe. Economic necessity produced this issue of paper money, while the fall of Vicksburg in 1863 suspended the operations of the VS & T. Fine.
