70c Foreign Exchange, Green, Imperforate (R65a). Horizontal pair, full margins to clear, deep rich color, neat April 29, 1864 manuscript cancels

VERY FINE. ONE OF TWO RECORDED PAIRS OF THE 70-CENT FOREIGN EXCHANGE IMPERFORATE. A PAIR IS THE LARGEST RECORDED MULTIPLE. A WONDERFUL RARITY.

Only one other pair is recorded, also ex Joyce. This is the first time we have offered a multiple since keeping computerized records.

Ex Joyce.
