The twenty shilling note features intricate engravings and designs in black and red inks that are characteristic of the time period, representing the craftsmanship and artistry of early American currency.

Featuring three distinct signatures, this note is a rare and valuable piece of history that provides a glimpse into the economic and financial system of Colonial Pennsylvania.
