| 正面描述 | The central vignette presents the Maryland Coat of Arms — a heraldic shield supported by two armored figures, surmounted by a crown, with the Latin motto CRESCITE ET MULTIPLICAMINI on a scroll below. The denomination ONE DOLLAR appears at upper left alongside the coat of arms, with the full legislative text of the indented bill occupying the surrounding letterpress in italic and roman typefaces. A decorative foliate border frames the left margin, and the heading MARYLAND with the engraver's name T. SPARROW runs along the top edge. |

Printed by Anne Catharine Green — one of the few female printers operating a colonial press in America — and her son Frederick, this note was among the last issued before the Revolution severed Maryland's colonial monetary system entirely. Anne had taken over the Maryland Gazette and the colony's official printing contracts after her husband Jonas died in 1767, and she held those contracts until her own death in 1775, meaning this 1774 issue was produced in the final year of her life.
The nature print border — an actual leaf or plant material inked and pressed directly onto the plate — was a Benjamin Franklin-influenced anti-counterfeiting measure widely adopted by colonial printers. T. Sparrow's engraving work for the Greens is locally significant; he was an Annapolis craftsman rather than a London-trained specialist.
