Pennsylvania Colonial Currency, October 1st, 1773 FR-PA-163 18d (1 Shilling & 6 Pence) Signed BY
Pennsylvania Colonial Currency, October 1st, 1773 FR-PA-163 18d (1 Shilling & 6 Pence) Signed BY Owen Jones Jr Grades vf+. Owen Jones Jr. (1744-1825) was the son of Owen Jones (1711-1793) who was the last provincial treasurer of Pennsylvania before the Revolutionary War. The Jones family were prominent merchants in Philadelphia. Hall and Sellers was a Philadelphia printing company originally established by Benjamin Franklin. In 1743 Franklin hired David Hall (1714-77), a Scottish journeyman printer, and in 1748 made the latter a partner. The firm printed the Pennsylvania Gazette, Franklin's newspaper. In 1766 Franklin sold his share in the business to Hall, and later that same year Hall brought in the journeyman printer William Sellers as his new partner, establishing Hall & Sellers. The firm carried government contracts, including printing paper money.
