FINE APPEARANCE. VERY FEW EXAMPLES OF THE TYPE C 1898 PROVISIONAL SURCHARGE ON THE ONE-HOGSHEAD STAMP ARE KNOWN.

The Priester census reports only two known for REA50c, including one with Type 51 and one with Type 52 surcharge. We are aware of perhaps one or two others.

Ex "Scarsdale". With 2012 P.F. certificate incorrectly stating Type 52 surcharge
