March 6, 1776. Fifty Pounds. "By Order of Congress". Bearer Note. "Trophies" Vignette. PMG graded Fine-12. Split repairs, tape. This £50 denomination is very rare. Only 3,700 notes were authorized to be printed in 1776. This uniquely styled note has the first line of its text which reads: "This Bill entitles the Bearer to Fifty Pounds Currency by order of the Congress, March 6, 1776". It is the second highest denomination of the issue, and as such was printed in a larger size measuring 3.5" tall x 5.25" wide. It has an impressive and sharply printed circular military "Trophies" vignette at the lower right and is unusual as it is also printed on both sides. There are some old deft, edge split repairs plus a very thin reinforcement strip of early fiber tape along the horizontal reverse centerfold. This note is very rare, far above average in its quality, and is definitely needed by most every collector. Item Number: 66556 NO RESERVE. Powered by eBay Turbo ListerThe free listing tool.
