Description
New York Currency
Rare Circulated "Contemporary Counterfeit" February 16, 1771 on the Colony of New York Currency Issue Note
Colony of New York. February 16, 1771. Ten Shillings. Contemporary Counterfeit. About Good.
Fr. NY-162. This is an extremely rare Contemporary Counterfeit engraved printed note regardless of quality. Heavily accepted and circulated, there are significant centerfold and internal splits , the note being contemporarily backed for reinforcement on Colonial era laid paper across its blank reverse. The colonial period vignette of the ARMS OR NEW YORK at lower right is particularly interesting in its crude "folk art" style appearance.
