Iconic Sword In Hand Design
Colonial Currency > Massachusetts
MA-179 3 Shilling 4 Pence December 7, 1775
Grade: PCGS Apparent VF 20
The Minuteman vignette seen on the back (better known as Sword in Hand) is one of the most evocative designs in the arena of colonial currency. PCGS notes there are splits, tears, and repairs, none of which appear to greatly affect the desirability of this piece. PCGS has graded six examples, all apparent grades, and PMG has graded three notes, with the best of those garnering a Fine 15 designation. This is likely one of the best you will find and just a few months ago we saw another sell, also in a PCGS Apparent VF 25 holder, for over $1750.
