EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a historical artifact that takes us back to the early days of American commerce. The Pennsylvania banknote for fifteen shillings, dating back to 1773, is a testament to the financial landscape of the time. This intricately designed piece of paper currency represents not only monetary value but also the spirit of rebellion and revolution that was brewing in the colonies. As we gaze upon this well-preserved banknote, we are transported to an era when America was on the brink of significant change. It serves as a reminder of how crucial finance and trade were in shaping the destiny of this great nation. The delicate engravings depict symbols associated with both Pennsylvania's colonial heritage and its revolutionary aspirations. The presence of this rare artifact evokes curiosity about what life must have been like during those turbulent times. It invites us to ponder upon questions such as who held this note? What goods or services did it exchange hands for? How did it contribute to fueling or quelling tensions leading up to the American Revolution?
