Scarce One Shilling Paul Revere "Rising Sun" Note

Massachusetts State. 1779. One Shilling. "Pine Tree & Rising Sun" Vignette. Paul Revere Engraved "Rising Sun" Issue. Choice Very Fine.
Fr. MA-266. The 1s denomination note is perhaps the most popular of the entire issue. Only this sole denomination displays both a "Rising Sun" together with a "Pine Tree" vignette, within the boxed face vignette. It is the only denomination to have that vignette combination. This note has four full margins and the face side is particularly well centered. It enjoys the overall sharpness and the eye appeal of near Extremely Fine. A very collectable example of this historic Paul Revere engraved "Pine Tree & Rising Sun" designed note.
