In an attempt to stop counterfeiting (by both British agents and local criminals), colonial authorities had their printers employ different colored inks, arranged for bills to be signed by local authorities, and ordered special papers embedded with mica flakes and blue threads. Some colonial bills featured \u201cnature prints\u201d\u2014designs created from a leaf pressed into plaster and cast in lead type metal. First developed in 1739 by Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790) and botanist Joseph Breintnall (d. 1746), the \u201cnature print\u201d process was especially useful for currency. Each leaf was unique, with intricate vein structures that thwarted counterfeiters. Several colonies, including Pennsylvania, Maryland, Delaware, and New Jersey, adopted this technique to safeguard their currency.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;335559731&quot;:720}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_19828\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-19828\" style=\"width: 317px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/pastispresent.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/517148_NJ_1776_002.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-19828\" src=\"https:\/\/pastispresent.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/517148_NJ_1776_002-182x300.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"317\" height=\"523\" srcset=\"https:\/\/pastispresent.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/517148_NJ_1776_002-182x300.jpeg 182w, https:\/\/pastispresent.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/517148_NJ_1776_002-620x1024.jpeg 620w, https:\/\/pastispresent.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/517148_NJ_1776_002.jpeg 761w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 317px) 100vw, 317px\"\/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-19828\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Verso of an eighteen-pence New Jersey note with \u201cnature print,\u201d issued March 25, 1776, typeset, Burlington: Isaac Collins.\u202f (<a href=\"https:\/\/catalog.mwa.org\/vwebv\/holdingsInfo?bibId=517148\">Catalog Record<\/a>)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"attachment_19829\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-19829\" style=\"width: 348px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/pastispresent.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/517148_GA_1776_0001.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-19829\" src=\"https:\/\/pastispresent.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/517148_GA_1776_0001-300x208.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"348\" height=\"241\" srcset=\"https:\/\/pastispresent.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/517148_GA_1776_0001-300x208.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/pastispresent.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/517148_GA_1776_0001-1024x710.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/pastispresent.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/517148_GA_1776_0001-768x533.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/pastispresent.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/517148_GA_1776_0001.jpeg 1377w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 348px) 100vw, 348px\"\/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-19829\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Twenty-Spanish-dollar note, issued 1776, typeset, three colors, Savannah: printer unknown.\u202f\u202f(<a href=\"https:\/\/catalog.mwa.org\/vwebv\/holdingsInfo?bibId=517148\">Catalog Record<\/a>)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">The new website gallery offers an example of a paper bill from each of the original colonies and Vermont, as well as continental bills intended to help unite those colonies into one economy. \u00a0If you are interested in learning more about the history of early currency in America, the web resource also <\/span><span data-contrast=\"auto\">includes some helpful resources for further research. \u00a0These bills are important survivors of a time two hundred and fifty years ago that helped take thirteen separate economies and move them forward to becoming one nation. \u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>View the online gallery on the AAS website here: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.americanantiquarian.org\/library\/american-currency-during-revolution\">https:\/\/www.americanantiquarian.org\/library\/american-currency-during-revolution\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>These days it is rare to see someone pay with cash.
