1769 Pennsylvania 9 Pence "Bettering House Money" Note

Known as "Bettering House Money" a very unusual, high quality example of this early note being from an issue meant for, "the Relief and Employment of the Poor in the City of Philadelphia," as stated within the text. Whole and complete, all text being readable, the serial number and signature of Jacob Lewis still retained in rich brown ink. Very rare in this better quality, being a low denomination, which would normally receive extensive wear. This note grades Extra Fine.
