Lot of (2) PA-68 & PA-74. Pennsylvania. 1755 & 1756. 10 Shillings. PMG Very Good 10 Net & PCGS Currency Fine 12 Apparent. Ten Shillings. Scarce pair of Ben Franklin issued notes. The 1755 issue is the first one that is even remotely collectible, albeit very scarce. The 10 shilling note is the highest denomination and it has the lowest printing. The 1756 issue is the first French and Indian War series. These were to be redeemed by tax levies in support of military expeditions. PMG has noted "Pieces Severed and Reattached" for the 1755 note, and PCGS has commented "Splits and Repairs, Minor Edge Fraying" for the 1756 note which hails from the Newman collection. Individually, these tend to sell for several hundred dollars each in any reasonable state of preservation.
