30c Hamilton, Large Die Trial Color Proofs on India (190TC1a). 12 different colors, appears to be a mix of listed and unlisted colors, eight on original cards measuring approximately 80 x 92mm (four with full die sinkage), two others off card but the same full size India paper, final three are cut down to the size of "Goodall" proofs but don't match those listed colors so counted as 190TC1a, few trivial toning specks, the three cut down proofs with small faults, also includes No. 165P1 with full die sinkage on 90 x 105mm card

VERY FINE. A RARE LARGE SET OF 30-CENT BANK NOTE TRIAL COLOR LARGE DIE PROOFS.

Arguably all or some of these could be listed as trial colors for No. 217 as they have been associated with the 1882-87 Issue in the past. Scott lists them under the 1879 Issue as No. 190TC
