South Carolina March 6, 1776 £15 Fine-Very Fine.This series is very diverse, with denominations from 1 shilling 3 pence to 100 pounds. They featured different paper types, sizes, orientations, emblems, and patriotic mottos; some had two-color printing. The four highest denominations (15, 25, 50, and 100 pounds) were printed on laid paper using a large format. Elaborate borders create a beautiful frame for the text. The circular emblem at lower right shows a rattlesnake attacking the British lion. Encircling is the motto MAGNIS INTERDUM PARVA NOCENT (Sometimes small things do harm to big things). There are four signatures, but the vertical one at the right is faint. There are some minor edge splits and pinholes. Well margined and well printed. The long vertical center tear has been tape repaired, with some spots of paper loss present. In above average condition for a note printed on delicate paper. The emblem is very sharp and exhibits its patriotic character splendidly.
