This is an authentic piece of colonial currency from the 1700's. These early U.S. currency pieces from the colonies that would make up our states are a true piece of history. This one was issued the Connecticut colony. It is clearly dated from May 10th 1770. This one was worth the amount five shillings. Yes that's right at that time currency was still figured in English or Spanish values. On the lower left hand side it has the image of the seal of Connecticut. On the back of the note you see that it has been reinforced with an old piece of paper eons ago and it is priced accordingly. The note measures approximately 3-1/2 inches by 2-5/8ths inches in overall size and is in attractive displaying circulated condition. This note was professionally graded by the PCGS Company and they rated it as being a "Very Fine" note. It comes in their acid free holder for display and preservation. This is a nice authentic early piece of paper money from a colony of the soon to be United States. ' Item #: A6178 Price: $165.00 USD (Sale Pending)
