<p>[QUOTE=&quot;krispy, post: 1056561, member: 19065&quot;]For anyone interested, here is more information on the <a href="http://www.coins.nd.edu/ColCurrency/CurrencyText/PA-04-25-76.html" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.coins.nd.edu/ColCurrency/CurrencyText/PA-04-25-76.html" rel="nofollow">Colonial Currency of Pennsylvania - April 25 1776</a>, with an example of a 40 shilling note for comparison.</p><p><br /></p><p>The note posted by the OP is very hard to see details to determine authenticity. Counterfeiting was rampant in Colonial America, just as it remains rampant in Asia today.</p><p><br /></p><p>The note could be be authentic based on the description given at the link for plate numbers and the visual <i>look</i> of the note, but the image is really too small for us to tell and I&#039;m not expert at spotting fake Colonials. The image posted by the OP also appears to be finer than most that have sold, either certified or raw by Heritage, appearing in Auction archives.</p><p><br /></p><p>If the OP has this note and is seriously considering to submit the note to PCGS Currency for authentification, I hope he will post the results here when the note comes back.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
