Description

Pennsylvania May 20, 1758 20s PMG About Uncirculated 50.
A well preserved note that was "Printed by Ben Franklin" and "Signed by Charles Thomson" as noted on the PMG holder. Thomson was the Secretary of the Continental Congress and served in that role for the entire fifteen years of its existence. He also notified Washington that he had been nominated for the presidency. PMG has graded a mere six examples of this note. The other five notes are graded Very Fine 20 and below, making this note the highest graded by a full thirty points. In fact, the Newman reference does not price this note higher than Very Fine. Notes of this era are seldom found this nice.
