Virginia, Oct. 7, 1776; fifteen Spanish milled dollars. This was the second issue using the revised Virginia state arms on the front showing Liberty as a soldier trampling a foe. Denominations of $4 and higher had the motto "Sic semper tyrannis" (So always to tyrants). In the motto there is a misspelling, or more correctly the use of the wrong Latin case ending of "tyrannus" for tyrannis. The border cuts for the dollar denominations were reused from the prior issue. This issue has a blank reverse and is printed on heavy rag paper containing blue fibers and mica flakes. Color: BK,WH
