I had a chance to stop by the Stacks Gallery in Boston and picked up this 2 shillings & 6 pence note dated August 18, 1775. Supposedly this one was engraved by Paul Revere.
And, to keep the post more coin related, I got to look at this coin and they let me take pictures of it too. I didn’t purchase it though, maybe next time😉

Here’s a nice write up I found that gives info about the “Sword in Hand” Paul Revere notes

LOVE Them
I am a newer collector (started April 2020), and I primarily focus on U.S. Half Cents and Type Coins. Early copper is my favorite.
Here’s some nice pictures I found on Heritage from when the same note was sold n 2015
And here is another write up I found on these Paul Revere Sword in Hand notes from silvertowne.com
