Description
Immerse yourself in the economic heartbeat of early America with this authentic 1770 Maryland colonial currency note, a genuine relic from the Colony of Maryland issued on March 1, 1770, in Annapolis. Denominated at $4, this Maryland colonial bank note represents the ingenuity of colonial printers Anne Catherine Green and W. Green, featuring intricate engravings of maritime symbols and allegorical vignettes that defined colonial era money.
Printed on period laid paper with subtle watermarks and rich ink impressions, this antique Maryland colonial currency measures about 3.5 x 6 inches. Its historical weight is immense: as one of Maryland’s scarcer emissions, it predates the Continental Congress’s fiat experiments and embodies the decentralized monetary system that fueled the Revolutionary War currency era. It’s a prized acquisition for numismatists, offering not just collectible appeal but a tangible link to the Chesapeake’s prosperous tobacco economy and revolutionary fervor.
In Very Fine condition with even toning and minimal edge wear, this authenticated piece and graded for provenance. Ideal for framing in a custom case or integrating into a colonial paper money collection. At Antique Armory, we collect such rarities to bridge the past and present, enhancing portfolios with pieces of enduring value. Secure this 1770 Maryland colonial currency today.
