Colony of Massachusetts Bay note for ten shillings. 7” x 3 5/8”. Massachusetts. May 25, 1775. This note, part of the first emission printed by iconic American patriot Paul Revere, bears the signature of Henry Gardner, the Receiver General of Massachusetts. Following the Battles of Lexington and Concord, the Provincial Congress of MA authorized an emission of £25, 998 in “Soldiers’ Notes” in order to raise an army. These notes, the first emission printed by Paul Revere, were paid to the men who soon found themselves facing British regulars at the Battle of Bunker Hill. Working night and day, Revere threw himself into this task, at times under the watchful eye of two members of congress. Moreover, the plate used for ten shilling notes in this emission was the backside of a recycled plate that had originally been used for Revere’s famous print of the Boston Massacre. This completely engraved note, excepting signature, notations and handwritten serial number, bears partial acantus leaf design and “MBC” (Massachusetts Bay Colony) monogram at scalloped left edge. Below this design is an “American Paper” notation, which the “Amer” of American. Paper also show partial “GR” & crown watermark, which refer to King George III. A great, historically rich note. This item has been encapsulated and graded by PASS-CO. Fine.
