Approx. 3.5 x 7 in., dated 3 Dec. 1789. Bond interest payment certificate, issued by Connecticut, probably to finance its obligations associated with the war. Printed in Hartford by Hudson and Goodwin. Has been canceled with a hole in center, and edges cut irregularly, as was often the case in an attempt to foil counterfeiters - the idea being only one receipt would fit the original bond from which it was cut. Condition: Other than above, excellent condition. One old fold through center.
