1779 Rev. War Massachusetts Advance Pay To Officers

Item Details

Description

Massachusetts Currency
1779 "Rattlesnake & Pine Tree" American Revolutionary War Vignetted Massachusetts Bay Treasury Loan Certificate
April 26, 1779-Dated American Revolutionary War. State of Massachusetts Bay. 6% Treasury "Advance Pay To Officers, First Moiety" Partly-Printed Certificate. 100. Anderson MA-18. Extremely Fine.
This April 26, 1779 Partly-Printed Certificate is fully completed in Manuscript, measuring 5.75" x 8.75" on fine quality laid watermarked period paper. The right border blocked text reads: "Advance Pay To Officers, first Moiety" and the left indented edge is cut for future redemption purposes. The State of Massachusetts pledged to pay a Revolutionary War officer one hundred Pounds, reading: "For Value received for the Use of the State of Massachusetts-Bay. I do in behalf of said State hereby promise and oblige myself and Successors in the Office of Treasurer to pay the Possessor of this Note the Sum of One Hundred Pounds....". Endorsed on the blank reverse by Capt. Joseph McNall, who acknowledges receipt of the principal and for eight month's interest. These certificates are sought-after as fiscal paper from the American Revolutionary War period, also due to the elaborate engravings after Paul Revere. This example features a symbolic vignette of a Coiled Rattlesnake encircling a Pine Tree. Signed by Henry Gardner as Treasurer, by Stephen Minot, and J. Mascarene as "Committee" members. Gardner's signature is lightly canceled with a strike-through. This example is lightly toned with nice strong printed text but weak secondary design print and has an old, 1.5" long archival glassine tape reinforcement to a short tear at the edge. Endorsed on the reverse, "Joseph McNall Capt".
