Description
North Carolina Currency
1803 "Moravian Church" in Winston-Salem, North Carolina Nine Pence Typeset Gem Crisp Uncirculated Scrip Note
North Carolina, Hand-Dated October 22d, 1803, Moravian Church Note in Winston-Salem, Nine Pence, Signed "Sam(uel) Slots" and "Conrad Kreuser," Gem Crisp Uncirculated.
Fr. NC-Not Listed. Hand-dated "October 22d," printed year 1803, this bright fresh perfectly centered small size Typeset Scrip note was issued by the Moravian Church in Winston-Salem, North Carolina. There was a 1766 Moravian settlement, with the Church founded on November 13, 1771 which still stands in Old Salem. This example is sharply printed in deep black on fresh bright laid period paper with the bold brown signatures, "Sam(uel) Slots" and "Conrad Kreuser." This Chuch issue attributed by our friend, the noted currency expert Douglas Ball to being the Moravian Church of Salem, North Carolina and determined a Colonial era issue. Previously we offered and sold a Two Pence denomination in our EAHA Auction of February 14, 2009 Lot 717, PASS-CO graded Gem UNC-65SPQR with some trivial light ink erosion as noted on its holder which sold for $1,416; and another offered in EAHA Auction of November 15, 2008, Lot 98, PMG graded Gem Unc-65EPQ brought a world record price of $1,947.
The Moravian Church embraces the basic doctrines affirmed by the wider Christian Church through the ages. Their theological statements are in general agreement with "mainline" Protestant churches. Two of the most widely accepted Christian doctrinal statements, the Apostles' and the Nicene creeds, are included in our liturgies.
Moravians have two sacraments " Baptism and Holy Communion. Moravians have not written lengthy volumes of theology, but prefer to emphasize more the living out of our faith in our words and actions. This emphasis is highlighted in our Covenant for Christian Living, which outlines standards for our conduct with one another and with the world.
