1933, ($6.00) Black, 1hhd., Beer (REA176; Priester 206A). Large margins, "THB Co. 12-8-33" perforated cancel, few faults including small creases and soiling

VERY FINE APPEARANCE. A RARE EXAMPLE OF THE 1933 SECOND ISSUE ONE-HOGSHEAD BLACK, OF WHICH ONLY FIVE ARE KNOWN.

The earliest reported use of any unsurcharged denomination is December 6, 1933, just two days prior to the date this stamp was used. It is believed that there are two additional copies outside of the Priester census, for a total of five known examples of this rarity.

Ex Tolman and "Scarsdale". With 2012 P.F. certificate
