CUBA, 1900, 10c on 10c Brown, Ty. II (226A). Position 10 from the bottom left pane with natural straight edges at top and right, showing both guidelines, lightly hinged, radiant colorVERY FINE EXAMPLE OF THE CUBA 10-CENT ON 10-CENT TYPE II SPECIAL PRINTING.
In March 1900 one pane of each denomination was prepared for the Paris and Pan-American Expositions. For the 10c the Type II design was used and it is only known as a Special Printing. Only two plate number and imprint positions were printed, from the bottom and left sides. The example offered here from an identifiable plate position is very desirable.
Signed in pencil. With 1954 P.F. certificate
