Colonial American Money

During America's Colonial & Continental periods ( roughly 1750 - 1795 ), the paper money ( first denominated in pounds/pence and later in dollars/cents ) was often carried in " folded " fashion for convenience. As the paper used in these early currencies was often brittle it would, in a short time, begin to ' split ' along the fold lines. At various periods during America's early history there were shortages of small change coinage, and so these already split bills were accepted as representing that portion of the entire original bill.

At various periods during America's early history there were shortages of small change coinage, and so these already split bills were accepted as representing that portion of the entire original bill. For example, a One Dollar note issued by Virginia in 1780, having been folded and unfolded several times, could soon become 4 quarter notes, and would be accepted as a quarter of a dollar ( or 25¢ ), in times when actual metal coinage was not available.

Here we present a selection of Colonial and Continental " splits " that may have been used as small change during this period. The sizes, denominations and types of these " splits " are varied, but are all actual pieces of the original currency and generally in fine to very fine condition. These are individually packaged in mylar.
