    Description

    North Carolina April 2, 1776 $1/4 so-called Halibut Apparent PCGS Very Fine 30. The apparent grade is due to "multiple restorations," which is correct, although they are all rather minor and very well done. The note faces up like a perfect Very Fine. This note, which is referred to both traditionally and in Newman as a halibut, was most likely intended by the engraver to be a generic fish or specifically something in the tuna family. Species aside, this is a rare, important and good-looking note, the first we have handled.
