Up for auction is a high grade PCGS 40 EXTREMELY FINE, 1780 20 Shillings Connecticut Colonial Note.

 

This contemporary counterfeit was detected and pen cancelled. The 20 shilling denomination was a higher denomination for this issue and as such was counterfeited as was often the case.

 

COLONIAL COUNTERFEITS ARE HIGHLY COLLECTIBLE!

 

Printed by Tim Green on reverse.

 

Timothy Green published the New London Summary from 1758-1763. In 1763 a nephew, another Timothy Green, took over the presses and launched the New-London Gazette which enjoyed a long life. Another member of the same family, Thomas Green, who had been the editor of the Connecticut Gazette for James Parker, founded the Connecticut Courant in Hartford in 1764. This paper would become the oldest American newspaper in continuous publication in the same city. Other pre-Revolutionary newspapers in Connecticut were the Connecticut Journal and New Haven Postboy (the predecessor to the New Haven Journal-Courier) published in New Haven by Thomas Green and theNorwich Packet, and the Connecticut, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, and Rhode Island Weekly Advertiser first published in Norwich by Alexander and James Robinson and later by John Trumbull.

GRADING AND CONDITION

GEM UNCIRCULATED: A note that is flawless, with the same freshness, crispness and bright colors as when first printed. It must be perfectly centered, with full margins, and free of any marks, blemishes or traces of handling.

CHOICE CRISP UNCIRCULATED: An uncirculated note which is fresher and brighter than the norm for its particular issue. Almost as nice as GEM UNCIRCULATED, but not quite there. Must be reasonably well centered.

UNCIRCULATED: A note which shows no trace of circulation. It may have perfect centering and may have one or more pinholes, counting smudges, or other evidence of improper handling, while still retaining its original crispness.

ABOUT UNCIRCULATED: A bright, crisp note that appears new but upon close examination shows a trace of very light use, such as a corner fold or faint crease. ABOUT UNCIRCULATED is a borderline condition, applied to a note which may not be quite uncirculated, but yet is obviously better than an average EXTRA FINE note. Such notes command a price slightly below a new note and are highly desirable.

*** EXTRA FINE: *** A note that shows some faint evidence of circulation, although it will be bright and retain nearly full crispness. It may have two or three minor folds but NO tears, or stains and NO discolorations.

VERY FINE: A note that has been in circulation, but not actively or for long. It still retains some crispness and is still choice enough in its condition to be altogether desirable. It may show folds or creases, or some light smudges from the hands of a past generation.

FINE: A FINE note shows evidence of much more circulation, has lost its crispness and very fine detail, and creases are more pronounced, although the note is not seriously soiled or stained.

VERY GOOD: A note that has had considerable wear or circulation and may be limp, soiled or dark in appearance and even have a small tear or two on an edge.

GOOD: A note that is badly worn, with margin or body tears, frayed margins or missing corners.
