Uncut three pieces of 10 1794 pennies or the so-called "accounting zloty".
The lack of traces of secondary cutting and the edges bearing traces of age allow us to assume that in this form they were intentionally left in the era as 30 pennies, i.e. accounting zlotys.
Piece in beautiful, absolutely bank preserved condition. The paper is clean, the printing is contrasting, and the edges are naturally smooth.
An interesting, rare item. Excellent as an addition to a collection of Kosciuszko tickets. Without a doubt one of the prettiest pieces that appeared on the auction market in Poland.
In the Polish lands, the introduction of paper money into circulation was connected with expenses related to the outbreak of the Kosciuszko Insurrection. Its issuer was the Directorate of Treasury Tickets established by the Supreme National Council. In terms of value, treasury tickets were equated with coinage. Obligations to the Treasury could be paid a maximum of 50% in paper money and the remainder in coins. This condition resulted in its negative reception by the public. In the future, the redemption of treasury tickets was to be financed from national wealth. For counterfeiting paper money, the death penalty was stipulated, as well as the confiscation of all the perpetrator's property. On September 29, 1794, in order to strengthen confidence in treasury tickets, the National Supreme Council authorized the regulation of the entire amount in paper pennies and zlotys. Due to the failures of the uprising, public confidence in paper money was declining. The population preferred to accept bullion money in settlements. The range of issuance of the first Polish paper money was small - it was introduced on a large scale only in Warsaw. After the capture of the capital on November 6, 1794, tickets of all denominations for a total of 7.8 million Polish zlotys remained in the hands of the population.
