10c Green (226). Absolutely enormous margins all around, deep rich color and proof-like impression, light strike of target cancel leaves entire design clearly visible, Extremely Fine Gem, a phenomenal stamp in every respect, it is interesting that the circle around the "10" at lower left of this issue goes thru the outer oval of the vignette in the same manner as the Bureau 1898 Type II (Scott 283), but that this does not occur on the Bureau 10c 1894-95 Issues (Scott 258 and 273), ex Twigg-Smith
