NJ-195. New Jersey. January 9, 1781. 1 Shilling, 6 Pence. PMG Choice Uncirculated 64.No.17418. Signed by B. Smith and R. Neil. Boldly printed Coat of Arms emblem at left, as well as leaf nature print on the back. The margins are simply enormous on all sides, thereby giving this splendid example tons of visual impact. Tied with one other example for Top Pop at both combined grading services. Few notes from the series are fully Uncirculated, and those that are generally exhibit tight margins due to bad centering or mis-cutting. The Ford example graded Choice Extremely Fine and brought a healthy realization of over $2,500 some fifteen years ago. A dozen years ago we sold the Minot example for $1,265 and that graded PMG AU 58 EPQ. The most recent example we have sold of this denomination was a PCGS Choice New 63 PPQ note that topped $1,500 some half-dozen years ago. A premium example.
