CC-101 $70 January 14, 1779
Grade: Choice CU    

---

The two highest denomination notes from this final Continental emission, the $70 and $80, have always received great acclaim as the most desirable examples to obtain. This example is likely one of the nicest available as it falls just short of the Gem grade due to some faint corner handling. Wonderfully embossed and boldly signed its eye appeal is nothing short of stunning. Newman values this denomination at $1,500 in Choice CU with no higher grade given.
