Five Colonial Currency Notes from 1770 to 1779, including North Carolina (1776), South Carolina, and Maryland

Currency notes

Updated at 9:15 pm on April 4: These have been sold.

 Five colonial currency notes available individually. 

Of varying size and dating from 1770 to 1779. All are signed by various treasurers. As shown in the photo, the backs are visible in three of the five.

Each note is enclosed in a 5" x 7" freestanding Lucite frame to protect the currency while allowing you to display it standing or flat. (Note that the manufacturer claims UV protection, but I haven't seen any technical report, so recommend keeping them out of direct sunlight.)

The currency notes:

  • Six Dollar North Carolina Note — Halifax, dated April 2, 1776. No. 6340. With a floral border and illustration of a squirrel. Size: 4." x 2.25"
  • Five Dollar United States of North America Note — N.p., dated January 14, 1779. No. 103325. Engraved border and decoration. Size: 4" x 3"
  • Five Dollar North Carolina Note — Hillsborough, dated August 8, 1778. No. 30616. Size: 2.5" x 3.5"
  • Six Dollar Maryland Note — Annapolis, dated March 1, 1770. No. 5426. Engraved border and decoration. Size: 4.5" x 2.25"
  • Two Dollar South Carolina Note — South Carolina, dated October 19, 1776. The number is illegible. Engraved border and decoration. Size: 3" x 4"

Only one available of each.

Important note on the care of these frames: Use a microfiber cloth or similar to remove dust and fingerprints. Do not use household cleaners.

Shipping: $10
