£20,000 in Bills of Credit issued pursuant to the Feb. 28, 1746 Act to exchange for prior issues and to continue Loan Office operations.

The faces have English Arms in a rectangular background as well as top and bottom border cuts. Thomas Leech cut the Arms in which he put his name LEECH. The crowns are keyed to the denominations. On the back of the four highest denominations are nature prints and animal cuts, as well as the warning “to counterfeit is DEATH”. The backs of the four lowest denominations are blank. Printed by Benjamin Franklin. The signers were William Armstrong, Jno. Bunche, Thomas Clark, John Clowes, and Hugh Durborrow.
