NY-184 8 Shillings January 6, 1776 Water Works
Grade: PCGS Apparent Very Ch. New 64    

---

The January 1776 issue is a bit scarcer than the common March issue and we don't seem to come across this 8 Shilling denomination very often. This is easily one of the prettiest examples we have ever laid eyes on as there is a single removable hinge on the back precluding the Gem grade from being assigned. Spectacular embossing, lovely signatures and razor sharp printing make this a real treat for its new owner. The last example of this denomination that we have seen sold was a PCGS VF 35 that brought over $200.
