MA-282. Massachusetts. May 5, 1780. $5. PMG Uncirculated 62. No. 6522. Uncancelled. Signed by Thomas Dawes and Loammi Baldwin. Baldwin is known as the "Father of American Civil Engineering," and his home has been standing for 350 years in Woburn, Massachusetts. An interesting signature variant that is seen on a small percentage of notes signed by him. Seen as "Loam." as opposed to his full name spelled out. A trio of wide margins give this handsome note the look of being fully Choice. We just saw a PMG Choice Uncirculated 63 example sell for $1,000 at auction. A prime opportunity to get in on the ground floor for the novice or advanced collector.
