Owner's Description

The face of Thirty dollar Continental bills issued between 1775 and 1777 feature and image of A wreath on a tomb with the Latin motto, "SI RECTE FACIES", which translates to English as, "If you act righteously you will be honored after death". On the back is an image of the sun shining on sailing ships in a calm sea with the Latin motto, "CESSANTE VENTO CONQUIESCEMUS", which translates to English as, "When the storm dies down we will rest". This bill was signed by James Ross and William Hardy.
