    Description

    Georgia May 4, 1778 $40 Choice About New. A fresh, flashy example of this issue, with an unbelievably distinct, bold, dark blue seal. The embossing of the seal is such that individual feathers of the dove's wing can be seen pressed into the paper on the back. The note has five strong signatures, including that of William Few, who nine years later was one of the signers of the United States Constitution. The note's only flaw is a small nick out of the left edge that effects only a few border ornaments. This is one of the nicer examples we've seen of this issue.
