    This item's owner is actively responding to offers, usually within 3 days. Most owners in this category are still actively buying, and therefore interested only in offers where they can net (after our 10% fee) an amount sufficiently above today's market value. Owners in this category seldom counter-offer, and will usually simply reject offers placed at current auction values or lower.

    Description

    South Carolina February 8, 1779 $70 PCGS Apparent Extremely Fine 45.
    PCGS has assigned the Apparent grade for minor stains which is exactly accurate but they do little to distract from the beauty of this broadly margined, high end XF. A lovely example of one of the better-executed Colonial Currency designs. High grade examples from this issue always attract considerable bidder attention, and this is one of the nicest $70 notes we have had in a while. The back design, engraved by Thomas Coram of Charleston, bears a detailed vignette illustrating the myth of Prometheus, chained to rocks, having his liver perpetually devoured by an eagle (vulture?).
