The June 8, 1777 Georgia issue was the first Georgia note to be payable in Continental Currency rather than Spanish milled dollars. The purpose of this issue was to support Continental troops. This $6 bill was printed in red and black ink with the seal of a millstone on a palm tree with the latin motto “OPPRESSA SURGIT” (The oppressed will rise). Scarce note with only 12 known to exist and neat low serial number 8.

Signers: Joseph Wood, Edward Langworthy, Richard Wylly, William O’Bryen, Nehemiah Wade
